In a recent article, Jennifer Tegtmeier and colleagues have shared CAVE: an open-source tool in MATLAB for combined analysis of head-mounted calcium imaging and behavior. Calcium imaging is spreading through the neuroscience field like melted butter on hot toast. Like...
Francisco Romero Ferrero and colleagues have developed idtracker.ai, an algorithm and software for tracking individuals in large collectives of unmarked animals, recently described in Nature Methods. Tracking individual animals in large collective groups can give...
Arne Meyer and colleagues recently shared their design and implementation of a head-mounted camera system for capturing detailed behavior in freely moving mice. Video monitoring of animals can give great insight to behaviors. Most video monitoring systems to collect...
In a recent publication, Fabrice de Chaumont and colleagues share Live Mouse Tracker, a real-time behavioral analysis system for groups of mice. Monitoring social interactions of mice is an important aspect to understand pre-clinical models of various psychiatric...
In the Journal of Neurophysiology, Sachin S. Deshmuhk and colleagues share their design for a Picamera system that allows for tracking of animals in large behavioral arenas. Studies of spatial navigation and its neural correlates have been limited in the past by the...
