Science Friday: Coolest Lab Ever?

Curated by ACT

Convincing a rat to run on a treadmill is just another day at the office for the researchers at the Concord Field Station (CFS), a Harvard lab located in Bedford, Mass. The lab focuses on comparative biomechanics, which requires lots of animals--including an emu, parrots, jerboas, goats--and lots of devices to document their movement. CFS director and biologist Andy Biewener takes us on a tour of the lab. [3:44]
