      Why do we not simply transplant the hair from the mice, onto the humans?

        To avoid rejection of the hair follicles, simply glue live mice to the top of your head.

      They should probably find a way to turn humans into mice. It’s a shame to leave billions of dollars on the table like that.

        Might be a good concept for a sci fi story actually, probably a comedic one. Scientists learn how to cure any disease and reverse aging, but only for mice.

          I know of a short story on becoming a mouse, but that one’s focus is something euthanasia adjacent.

          I cannot remember what but I’ve heard of mention of a story where because there’s so many cures of disease for mice that they take over the world or something. It’s such a faint mention sorry
