"Tested on mices" is the The biologist equivalent to the programmers "it works on my machine"

If humanity ever perishes and the next dominant species ends up being mice, the discovery and translation of our research will usher in a utopian world for them.

Yeah, but it's in Akademgorodok when it should be in Mousecow.
