Interesting article! A bit weird that they felt the need to plug the ugliest vehicle ever created, but the findings are certainly interesting! It's hard not to read enthusiasm into that little rat scooting along in its rat car!
It's disheartening to think that at the end of the experiment they'll just kill the poor thing, though. Like, I get not wanting to use the same rats from study to study so that you have a proper control, but there has to be a less heartless way of doing that.
It's a big step up from literally drowning lab rats as an experiment, but we've got a long way to go before we get even reasonably ethical with lab animals 😔
To be fair if anyone was gonna not kill them when they're done, this lab seems like they might be the ones.
