Avoidance behavior in mice - Refining behavioral analysis for genetic dissection

By J.G. Mooij-van Malsen et. al.

Mood and anxiety disorders are the most prevalent of all psychiatric disorders. Our research project focuses on the genetic dissection of certain behavioural phenotypes, specifically avoidance behaviour, with the aim to search for more selective pharmacological treatments of neurobehavioral disorders.

Measuring behavior & physiology - An integrated system for video and radio-telemetric EEG

By Elena Moscardo and Chiara Rostello

The combined evaluation of physiology and behaviour allows for a complete and comprehensive preclinical assessment of central nervous system (CNS) functions.
An integrated video-telemetric electroencephalography (Video-tEEG) system was developed to enable simultaneous assessment of animal behaviour by video tracking technologies, and electroencephalographic analysis by radio-telemetry in freely moving rats.
