When researchers at UC San Diego School of Medicine surveyed the effects of genetic mutations in different mouse strains, they found extremely variable results for two genes that previous studies had linked to psychiatric diseases. Their findings, published September 8, 2016 in Neuron, do not mean that mouse genetics isn’t extremely important for biomedical research, but do suggest that researchers should be cautious in drawing conclusions from a single genetic background. The study was led by Abraham Palmer, PhD, professor of psychiatry and vice chair for basic research, and Laura Sittig, PhD, postdoctoral researcher.
