- Written by Kim Cooper, Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences, University of California San Diego
Genetically engineered mice are invaluable for learning about human disease.
As mouse geneticists, we spend a lot of time waiting for mice to make more mice. Their small size, ease of care and willingness to mate have made mice the “mammal of choice” for scientists for more than a century. Indeed, these wriggly fur balls that strike...
