Brain and Behavior Animal Lab 3

Meeting location: GC 008c and Skaggs 007

​

Activities

​

1.  runway task for long-term memory  

2.  tube training refresher in food-deprived mice

3.  tube test for social dominance

​

             

               

Notes
 

1. Half the "S" mice and half the "N" mice from Skaggs will be brought over to GC 008. Similarly, half the "S" mice and half the "N" mice from the GC will be brought over to Skaggs

​

2.  We have 4 groups of animals: DS, DN, AS, AN.  During the lab, we will test the following matches:

  
DS vs AS            DN vs AN            DS vs DN          AS vs  AN

​

​

Think about this!

​

Why are we moving half the mice from their "home" into a different building?

​

Why are we NOT testing the following matches: DS vs AN, AS vs DN?

​

Music will NOT play during this task. Why?
