The course is a one week-long, in-person, interactive course on practical, mechanistic, and ethological aspects of rodent behavioral testing for translational research with emphasis on applications for drug discovery and neurodegenerative disease models. The course is comprised of theoretical and technical lectures as well as hands-on testing trials and demonstrations. The overall goal of the course is to enable researchers with minimal or no rodent behavioral experience to independently design, conduct, and analyze behavioral pharmacology studies. Topics may include learning & memory, sensory & motor, anxiety & mood, addiction, and automated methods. This course is open to undergraduate, graduate, and medical students as well as postdocs. Prior rodent handling experience is not required. Notes: This is a one-week course that meets M-F, 9 am to 3 pm. Attendance is required for the entire one-week duration of the course.
