Learning from Mice: The Science of Transgenic Technology

What do humans, flies, and worms have in common? More than you might think. See how transgenic organisms are engineered, and how they enable researchers to study genetic diseases.

Spinocerebellar Ataxia Case Study

Dr. Huda Zoghbi interviews Milan Cloud, a patient who has inherited the neurological disorder spinocerebellar ataxia 1, or SCA1. Also featured on the HHMI DVD, Learning from Patients: The Science of Medicine, available free from HHMI. Order DVDs here.

Rett Syndrome

Dr. Zoghbi introduces the topic of Rett syndrome by showing how development usually progresses in a young girl. She then shows an excerpt from Silent Angels, introduced by Julia Roberts, which shows how Rett syndrome affects development.

Rett Syndrome Mouse

Dr. Zoghbi shows how a mouse that has been given the gene responsible for Rett syndrome exhibits some of the same neurological symptoms as human Rett patients.

SCA1 Mouse on Rotarod

Dr. Zoghbi demonstrates how mice that have been given the gene responsible for spinocerebellar ataxia 1 (SCA1) are tested on a device called a rotarod to quantify the amount of ataxia present.
