You can’t call it a dictionary just yet, but University of Delaware neuroscientist Joshua Neunuebel is starting to break the code mice use to communicate with each other. So far, it’s all ...

Mice have long been a central part of neuroscience research, providing a flexible model that scientists can control and study to learn more about the intricate inner workings of the brain.

You may be familiar with this scenario: A child starts annoying another child, and they start bickering. To keep things from escalating, an adult distracts the children by focusing their attention on ...

Researchers have discovered several factors that affect field mouse behavior using seeds from dwarf bamboo plants, a plant that flowers once in a century. Their findings not only suggest the ...

Neural activity in the cortical amygdala determines whether mice engage in aggressive or pro-social behavior, according to a new study. By performing a network analysis on whole-brain activity of male ...

New research suggests that the commonly used ‘lab mouse’ may display behaviors entirely distinct from their wild-derived counterparts, prompting new considerations for the future of animal-based ...

A group of scientists from South Korea discovered that the use of nanoparticles can control the emotions and appetite of mice without doing any surgery. Nick Fewings from Unsplash Researchers at the ...

Researchers have demonstrated that specific groups of neurons, known as neuronal ensembles, have a causal role in behavior. The researchers used new optical and analytical tools to identify cortical ...
