Perhaps, but in that case there are no symptoms of schizophrenia in mice, correct? I suppose we might be able to deduce "feeling of ___" via behavior monitoring (e.g. hunger) or possibly even brain imaging (e.g. seeing "fear centers light up"), but even then it isn't "as experienced by the patient".


the model exhibits behaviour that we can deduce a schizophrenic mouse would have. Like social withdrawal. Are we sure they have schizophrenia? I am not so sure, and not that qualified to tell if that makes sense
