DREAM (Dynamic, Recoverable, Economical, Adaptable, and Modular) is a novel implant design for in-vivo electrophysiology in mice. It was developed by Tim Schröder, Robert Taylor, Marieke Schölvinck and Martha Havenith, as well as other colleagues in a joint effort...
Spatial cognition paradigms in animal models tend to focus on allocentric means of navigation where animals rely on environmental landmarks. There is a need for spatial cognition paradigms that also take egocentric navigation into account, where an animal’s own point...
Dr. Shuzo Sakata, from the University of Strathclyde, has developed a new tool for classifying animal behaviors. This MATLAB package, called SaLSa, offers an innovative approach to analyzing and categorizing behaviors using pose estimation data. Traditional manual...
Researchers at the Bernardo Houssay Institute of Physiology and Biophysics, led by Esteban Valverde, have developed an open-source holeboard for studying rodent behavior. Holeboards are a widely used tool in neuroscience for assessing exploration, anxiety, and spatial...
Tim Schröder and colleagues from Lisa Genzel’s lab at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, along with the company 3Dneuro, have recently published an open source device, The TD Drive, for multi-site, chronic neural recordings. The build of the...
