The "trans mice thing" refers to a political and scientific controversy sparked by conservative lawmakers and the Trump administration, who claimed that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) spent millions of taxpayer dollars "making mice transgender". [1, 2]
In reality, the government was not attempting to transition animals. Rather, the NIH funded standard preclinical research to see how gender-affirming hormone therapies impact human health. [1, 2]

  • Cancer and Other Risks: Studying how testosterone or estrogen therapies affect breast cancer risk, cardiovascular health, asthma, and the gut microbiome. [1, 2, 3]
  • Fertility: Looking at the reproductive effects of hormone therapies. [1, 2]
