Humans and mice: Similar enough for studying disease and different enough to give us new clues about evolution

Scientists have completed an exhaustive description of the mouse's functional genome elements and their comparison with the human genome. Comparing humans and mice enables us to better understand mammalian biology and evolution, as well as contributing new information on the use of mice as animal models for looking at human disease.
