Monkeys like to be microwaved; may be a similar effect.


Humans, too: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2012.3787

Very curious how you get IRB approval to microwave monkeys.


There is no IRB for monkeys.

The animal equivalent to an IRB is usually an Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC), but the laws they are subject to vary with jurisdiction, and their use is optional if your grant provider (i.e. NIH) or academic publisher do not require them.


I beg your pardon?

Humans like to sit in saunas.
