Ali Ogzur and colleagues designed a flexible and easily accessible tool for head fixation in mice. Considering the financial strain, time obligation, and level of experience necessary for head fixation experiments, the group provided a solution that includes both...
Kartikeya Murari and colleagues at the University of Calgary published their video-based tool, Markerless Mouse Tracking, in an eNeuro publication in February 2024. Behavior quantification of multiple interacting animals is often done by tools that are not accurate...
Gabriele Chelini and colleagues at The University of Trento, under the mentorship of Yuri Bozzi, introduce SEB3R, an automated method for tracking mouse body language and studying emotional behaviors. SEB3R quickly identifies different postures of mice and associates...
Dylan Terstege, Daniela O. Oboh, and Jonathan R. Epp, a team of researchers in the Epp Lab at the Hotchkiss Brain Institute in the University of Calgary’s Cumming School of Medicine, have created the open source software FASTMAP (Flexible Atlas Segmentation Tool...
Structural and functional mapping of neural circuits at a whole-brain level is an emerging area in neuroscience, with projects around the world attempting to map the mouse brain by cell type, activity, long and short term connectivity patterns, and circuit...
