interesting, i exactly read the opposite position from biologists that the mice experiments are now very useful when it comes to applicability to humans. I guess we have every possible oppinion.

I don't think that any self-respecting biologist would actually make any sort of categorical dismissal of research in mice. That kind of research has been the basis of noble prize-winning advancements in immunotherapies that now positively impact cancer survival rates for humans.

I'm sure the totality of opinions from biologists is vast and complex, but there is no way that "all opinions have been expressed" is a faithful report of the state of our knowledge on biology.

The reasoning they gave seems plausible, what reasoning do your biologists give for holding the opposite position?
