Vijay Namboodiri has contributed this summary of his lab’s open-source system for behavioral control based on the Arduino Mega microcontroller and a MATLAB-based graphical interface and analysis code. Associative learning and memory tasks are a staple of many...
Rodent drinking behavior is used in numerous task designs, most commonly two-bottle choice tasks, to provide insight into the research question of interest. Typically, measuring the intake of fluids is done by weighing bottles over days, and while several tools have...
Glen Beane and colleagues from the Kumar Lab at the Jackson Laboratory have developed JABS (JAX Animal Behavior System), an integrated hardware and software system with the purpose of building shared resources for mouse behavior analysis. The Python-based platform...
Alexej Schatz and the Winter Lab team at Humboldt University recently developed a control layer network, featured in eLife and available on GitHub. LabNet is a simple, fast, and flexible open-source experimental software platform for parallel control over multiple...
Mafalda Valente and colleagues have developed Ratphones, a tool that can be used to deliver precise auditory stimuli to freely moving rats. Ratphones are a miniature set of headphones that allow experimenters high control over sound presentation in order to...
