Injecting Mice With Human Brain Cells Actually Makes Them Smarter
A scenario like Planet of the Apes might not be as unrealistic as we think, but fortunately — or at least for right now — it seems like our future overlords will be far less threatening the Caesar and co.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 sessions all that much.

Scientists Erase The Memories Of Sleeping Mice
Researchers at Stanford claim they’ve figured out how to erase the traumatic memories of mice while they sleep bringing them one step closer to their goal of ending PTSD for humans.
