Overview
The BTC provides expert training and guidance in all aspects of rodent behavioral testing, including proposal preparation, experimental design, and statistical analyses. We are available to assist with troubleshooting for existing testing or help in developing and validating novel testing. We have AnyMaze software for automated behavioral scoring, as well as new options for machine learning for behavioral scoring.
The BTC offers a large array of behavioral tasks for rodents. We have included a brief description of some of the tasks here. However, we are always looking to expand and upgrade our tasks and equipment, so if you do not see a specific behavioral test listed, please contact us and we will discuss options to accommodate your request.
In addition to affective and neurocognitive assessments, the BTC has space and equipment for testing basic sensorimotor function, including a general neurophysiological screen (SHIRPA), gait analysis (cat walk), grip strength, balance, and more.
