| Protocol development for mouse behavioral models |
| Experimental design |
| Statistics, data analysis, interpretation, and reporting |
| On-site setup of equipment and procedures |
| Assistance in implementing behavioral phenotyping services |
| Assistance in designing and equipping behavioral testing facilities |

TRAINING:
| On-site personnel training (behavioral phenotyping, data analysis, etc.) |
| Getting it published. An on-site 4-5 hour course in which our
Chief Consultant Wim Crusio, using his extensive experience
as author and editor, provides training in effectively writing manuscripts,
communicating with authors and referees, etc. If desired, this course can be
adapted to the presentation of scientific data in oral communications and
posters. Suited for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and junior
faculty. The course can be presented in English, German, French, or Dutch
(slides in English) |
| Standards for the publication of mouse mutant studies.
Genes, Brain and Behavior has recently published guidelines for mouse
mutant studies and manuscripts that do not adhere to these standards will be
returned to authors without review. In this 1-2 hour lecture (depending on
existing levels of expertise), Editor-in-Chief Wim Crusio will present and
explain these guidelines and present good-practice standards for the conduct
of mouse mutant studies. (Note: this presentation is of interest to anyone
using mutant mice, not just behavioral and neural geneticists).
Presentation is possible in English, German, French, or Dutch (slides in
English) |
Testing apparatus:
| Radial mazes. Tired of using standard commercial radial mazes
conceived by people who do not really understand mouse behavior? We can help
you obtain state-of-the-art custom-build radial mazes specifically designed to test spatial
learning abilities in mice. Please contact us. |
