Highland deer mice and their lowland cousins ventured on a simulated seven-week ascent to 6,000 meters. By tracking how the mice responded to cold stress and progressively lower oxygen levels, the ...

No less than 16 different types of nerve cells have been identified by scientists in a new study on the human sense of touch.

Teams of mountaineering mice are helping advance understanding into how evolutionary adaptation to localized conditions can enable a single species to thrive across diverse environments.

No less than 16 different types of nerve cells have been identified by scientists in a new study on the human sense of touch.

Researchers identified 16 distinct types of nerve cells involved in human touch and compared them with those in mice and macaques, showing both shared and unique traits.

With millions of mice and rats in US labs alone, scientists can learn a lot of information from their scurrying test subjects ...

No less than 16 different types of nerve cells have been identified by scientists in a new study on the human sense of touch.

But for healthy mice, this test is a cakewalk. As Prof. Uusisaari explains, "most mice species are arboreal animals, living in trees. They have adapted to swiftly cross difficult surfaces like thin ...
