Researchers developed FLAV-27, an epigenetic drug that inhibits G9a to restore gene expression in Alzheimer’s models. The treatment reduced amyloid and tau, improved cognition and synaptic function, ...

The FDA has released draft guidance that aims to clear up how drug developers can use alternative testing – but that doesn’t mean animal testing in the US is over.

Behavioral analysis can provide a lot of information about the health status or motivations of a living being. A new technology makes it possible for a single deep learning model to detect animal ...

Researchers discover that the prefrontal cortex models the behavior of social partners, allowing groups to self-correct and maintain collective survival during hardship.

Engineered proteins that can cross the blood–brain barrier represent a reliable and non-invasive way to map gene expression in the brains of large animals. Gene therapy has been successfully used to ...

Cardiovascular researchers at UC Davis Health have developed a novel technique that allows scientists to study how the brain communicates with other organs, like the heart or gut. The new method ...

Animal research regulations, laws, and policies undergo continual review and revision as new technologies, tools, and techniques alter the way in which animals are used in biomedical research. The ...
