-- and its wider implications for human mental health treatment -- was found in their poop, per new findings published in Behavioural Brain Research.Rats are better drivers when they're mentally stimulatedKelly Lambert, study author and head of the University of Richmond's Lambert Behavioral Neuroscience Laboratory, trained two groups of young rats: One bunch raised in an "enriched environment" with toys, ladders, balls and pieces of wood designed to spark mental stimulation, and another reared in a standard, unexciting lab cage.The rats learned to enter a custom "rat-operated vehicle," or ROV, adorably constructed from a one-gallon plastic container turned on its side.Once inside, the rat racers would stand on an aluminum plate and press on a copper bar that would trigger the wheels' motor. They'd hold down on the bar until they propelled their tiny car to the end of their enclosure, where they collected their reward: Froot Loops.When it came time to drive, the rats who played with ladders, balls and toys were more adept at operating and steering the ROV, thanks to the neuroplasticity (their brains' ability to change over time) triggered by their environment. Their unstimulated cage counterparts effectively "failed their driving test," Lambert said.Hormones found in their feces showed improved emotional resilienceIn sifting through their fecal matter, Lambert found both groups of rats trained to drive secreted higher levels of corticosterone and DHEA, hormones that control stress responses.Corticosterone is a hormone animals could secrete in high-stakes scenarios like running from a wild animal or defending themselves from predators, but it can also be expressed in lower-risk tasks like doing taxes or worrying about a loved one (though rats likely aren't advanced enough to form a government, let alone impose taxes on fellow rats).DHEA acts as a sort of "buffer," Lambert said, when corticosterone becomes toxic -- that is, when it can't be turned off in a reasonable amount of time, creating prolonged stress.It's evidence that mastering a complex task, like driving a car, bolstered the rats' emotional resilience."It is likely that driving gives the rats a sense of control over their environment," she said. "In humans, we would say that it enhances a sense of agency or self-efficacy."What have rats got to do with human health?The brains of humans and rats share nearly all of the same areas and neurochemicals -- they're just smaller in rodents. And though humans are certainly more complex than rats, Lambert said there are "universal truths" in how both species' brains interact within their environment to maintain optimal mental health.So these results have implications for human health, too (and no, they don't mean rats will drive alongside people in tiny lanes on highways). Emotional resilience is one of the first lines of defense against mental illnesses like depression, she said, and learning what behaviors build that up could clue physicians in on how to treat those illnesses in humans.It's a concept Lambert refers to as "behaviorceuticals," activities that release hormones that can ward off prolonged stress brought on by corticosterone."Anything that reduces stress can build resilience against the onset of mental illness," she said.The activity can be something as simple as knitting, or in rats' case, learning to drive a car. Just engaging hands, paws and brains of varying sizes can enhance a participant's sense of control. 3489

With the Food and Drug Administration expected to approve COVID-19 vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna in the coming days, it's possible that many Americans will begin to receive vaccinations within weeks.However, both the vaccines require two shots that need to be taken several weeks apart — and officials worry that some Americans may forget to get their second shot.That's why officials said Wednesday that they are including reminder cards in each ancillary COVID-19 vaccination kit.According to the Department of Defense, the person administering vaccines will hand out a paper card after injecting the first dose of the vaccine. The cards will include the day that the first dose had been administered and the day that the patient will need to return to receive their second dose.Operation Warp Speed officials also say vaccine administers will also encourage patients to take a photo of the card with their cell phone or set up a reminder alert so they can remember the date of their next appointment even if they lose the card.On Wednesday, Gen. Gus Perna — the chief operating officer of Operation Warp Speed — said that pharmacy chains like CVS and Walgreens might be able to set up notifications and appointments for a second shot for those who receive the vaccine.CNN also reports that some vaccination clinics may ask patients to provide a cell phone number to help remind them about the second shot. All clinics will need to report each vaccination to a state registry in order to track instances where a person receives a shot from two different clinics.Johnson & Johnson is in the process of developing a single-shot COVID-19 vaccine. While officials on Wednesday said the vaccine is on track to reach efficacy thresholds by the end of the month, it likely won't be available until later in 2021. 1825

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. (AP) — A Tennessee rapper who boasted in a music video about getting rich from committing unemployment fraud was arrested Friday in Los Angeles. Fontrell Antonio Baines was arrested on three felony counts of access device fraud, aggravated identity theft and interstate transportation of stolen property. The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Baines faces up to 22 years in federal prison. The 31-year-old goes by the stage name Nuke Bizzle. Federal prosecutors allege that Baines and co-conspirators fraudulently obtained at least 92 debit cards pre-loaded with more than .2 million. Baines posted a music video on YouTube in September called “EDD," referencing California's unemployment agency, in which he boasts about getting “rich off of EDD.” 775
