Lab animal medicine in a branch of veterinary science involving the animals used for laboratory research. Lab animal medicine can encompass general veterinary care, medical treatment, surgical procedures, to care for the well-being of laboratory animals and also advance research. Mice, rats, guinea pigs, monkeys, rabbits, cats, dogs, and pigs are some examples of animals that can be used for laboratory research models.
Implementing precision genomic medicine in the pediatric acute care setting has several challenges. First, the diagnosis must be made quickly. Second, the determination of pathogenicity mus...

Humans interact with their environment in countless ways and can switch seamlessly between activities. Even for seemingly simple tasks, a variety of sensory inputs and contextual cues are int...
The rapid formation of new memories and the recall of old memories to inform decisions is essential for human cognition, but the underlying neural mechanisms remain poorly understood. We util...
