I posted yesterday on my dealings with laboratory mice. Some people have expressed curiosity about what I do with mice. I start with mutant mice with varying forms of a cerebellar disorder. After humanely terminating the mouse, I remove the cerebellum. I do lots of different experiments on these cerebella, mostly grinding up the tissue and performing various procedures on the cerebellar proteins.
Not for the faint of heart, perhaps, here is a video of me dissecting a mouse (which has already been humanely terminated):
