Happy International Microorganism Day! 🎉

Today, we are celebrating the tiny powerhouses that have a massive impact on our world. From the bacteria in our gut to the fungi that give us antibiotics, these incredible organisms are essential to life.

Let's make some noise for the microscopic!

Divergent selection for basal metabolic rate in mice affects the abundance of UCP1 protein: implications for translational studies Abstract figure legend We studied two lines of laboratory mice divergently selected for high or low level of basal metabolic rate (BMR). We found that BMR was negatively correlated not only with fat ...

If you have a chance go see Collegium Maius and the clock with the academic parade. It plays a melody and a parade of figures comes our every 2 hours. Love that place.

Do you know why housing temperature is important in translational research using mice? Check out our new paper

That is such a cool idea!

We got enrichment samples for mice. They work.
