New research suggests mice may exhibit revival-like behaviors to help unconscious mice recover faster. Lab mice may give 'first aid' to unconscious mates Li Zhang has anesthetized a lot of mice in ...

Those behaviors must be instinctual, Whit Tao says, since these mice had never had the occasion to learn, having never encountered an unconscious mouse before.

Li Zhang has anesthetized a lot of mice in his research career. Several years ago, the University of Southern California neuroscientist began noticing that sometimes, when he placed an anesthetized ...

When we humans encounter an unconscious person, we might spring into action and try to revive them. Well, a new study in the journal Science hints that lab mice might do something similar. NPR's ...
