      Lol! No I haven’t!!

      I only use rat animal models for my work and from the results I get I try to guess how similar it would be in a human. An even better model to study would be pigs as they have very similar systems to humans, but they are so expensive to use! So instead I use rats as a smaller, cheaper option.
