Jared Armshaw and Grayson Butcher, from April Becker’s Neuroplasticity and Repertoire Recovery Lab at the University of North Texas, recently shared their open-source apparatus with us. Behavioral testing of rats usually involves removing individual animals from group...
The reach-to-grasp task is commonly used to study fine motor behavior in mice because of the translatability of the movement’s neurocircuitry to humans and non-human primates. Daniil Berezhnoi and colleagues have developed ReachOut, a project that includes all of the...
Danny Lam and colleagues out of the Shoffstall Lab at Case Western Reserve University published their open source tool, a 3D-printed Hindlimb Stabilization Apparatus, in eLife in December 2023. Motor function evaluation is a necessary measurement in Neuroscience...
Evan Destin-van Rijn and colleagues in Alik Widge’s Translational NeuroEngineering Lab at the University of Minnesota recently shared their preprint on their new Python-based framework, Pybehave with us. Pybehave is a Python-based framework for designing and...
While the current understanding of drinking behavior has rapidly evolved over time and research on the subject has become more widespread, the devices we use to measure complexities of this behavior have failed to keep up. Dr. Mariana Cardoso Melo and colleagues from...
