An important building block for understanding others' mental states is being able to recognize how they feel. We can infer this in many ways, for example, from a person's tone of voice or social context. Another important way is through decip...

Rodent models in neuroscience research: is it a rat race?

Rodents (especially Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus) have been the most widely used models in biomedical research for many years. A notable shift has taken place over the last two decades, with mice taking a more and more prominent role in biomedical science compared to rats. This shift was primarily instigated by the availability of a much larger genetic toolbox for mice, particularly embry...
