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...
Andre Spence and colleagues developed a closed-loop platform for studying locomotor behavior on treadmills. This tool is among several useful methods for studying locomotor behavior that is available from the Spence Lab at Temple University. The platform allowing for...
Shikin Hou and Elizabeth J. Glover have developed and shared Pi USB Cam, a system for high-throughput video capture. In their recent eNeuro publication, they provide beautifully detailed documentation for setting up the Pi USB Cam system, rendering this project very...
Visual stimuli are an effective way to study brain function and behavior in all animals. Specialized LED displays have become an increasingly popular tool in neuroscience experiments. However, commercial LEDs have primarily been designed and optimized for use in...
Mice, rats, and several other species communicate through ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs), outside of the human range of detection. Recently there’s been a broader adoption of USV analysis, as these vocalizations have relevance for understanding emotional states,...
