Take our audience survey!!!
DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER!!!

The thankful season is once again upon us…

And while the President has plenty of turkeys he would like to pardon…

We should pause here a moment to consider giving thanks

To a creature that has done more than just fill our bellies in a feast.

A creature that has nourished our minds

and propelled us into a more healthy and prosperous future…

The heroes behind many of our Nobel Prize winning humans…

Living lives dedicated to science…

And while our whiskered cousins may not claim credit for their results…

The modern era of science, medicine and psychology would not have been possible…

Without their bold and bountiful contributions…

Their model metabolisms,

And their stoic, steadfast equivalence of our emotional equilibrium,

So to the Lab Rat and Research Mouse alike,

We offer you our heat felt thanks this season… here on

This Week In Science…

Twisgiving edition…

Coming up next…

“What has science done for me? drugs that simultaneously fixed my depression and my insulin resistance.
