Bussey-Saksida Operant Touch Screen [More information]	Franz Hall B522	Jesse Cushman jessedcushman@gmail.com 3102674628	Our Bussey-Saksida Touch Screen System can run a variety of operant tasks using the same chamber, combined with powerful custom programming and analysis software. These tasks are particularly useful for translational studies designed to model a variety of human disorders such as schizphrenia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinsons and ADHD.
Med Associates Fear Conditioning Suite [More information]	Franz Hall B522	Jesse Cushman jessedcushman@gmail.com 3102674628	Our fear conditioning suite offers a range of protocols that can assess fear motivated behavior in rats in mice. This extremely reliable and versatile paradigm can be used to assess amygdala and hippocampal function.
Water maze	Franz Hall B522	Jesse Cushman jessedcushman@gmail.com 3102674628	The water maze can be used to assess a variety of cognitive functions, primarily hippocampus-dependent spatial learning.
