One of the major issues in modeling neuronal correlates of behavior is the vastly different protocols and data analysis methods between labs. Coralie-Anne Mosser and colleagues, however, have found a solution to this problem with their novel device, the...
In behavioral neuroscience, analyzing animal behavior is a key component to many experiments, but relying on manually scoring behaviors pose issues in reproducibility. In resolution, most have turned to computerized video-analysis systems that combine 2D images with...
Rupert Overall has generously shared information about two R packages for the analysis of animal tracking data. Analysis of spatial exploration data from rodents in various behavioral tests can reveal complex strategies for solving mazes and memory tasks. However,...
Video analysis and tracking methods have become increasingly important in behavioral neuroscience research. Although several tools have been highly developed for diverse use, most of the improvements have been made for tracking in 2D images. Timo Hueser and colleagues...
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...
