This was the first time such a virus has ever been found in a common house mouse...
...Laigret vaccine comes from the brains of mice which have been infected with yellow fever virus. When Dr. Max Theiler, now of Manhattan's Rockefeller Foundation, discovered that the virus could be fostered in mouse brains, investigators experimented with the use of his mouse-brain virus as a vaccine. They found that while monkeys inoculated with it developed immunity to yellow fever, they were also likely to develop inflammation of the brain, in many respects as bad as yellow fever. It was then proved that a mixture of mouse brains and serum from human beings who had recovered from...
...professors in the Harvard Medical school, Dr. Andrew W. Sellards and Dr. Hans Theiler are cited in a report made to the French Academy of Sciences for having contributed important aid to Dr. Jean L'Aigret of the Pasteur Institute of Tunis, in perfecting a wholly successful vaccine for yellow fever...

Sir Arnold Theiler reported cows from whose diet all vitamins were extracted, who thrived when supplied with phosphorus-a riddle. McDougall's Rats. At the end of the series of lectures and demonstrations by Dr. William McDougall of Harvard, the latter's admirer's were ejaculating that he had marked...
