Self head-restraining platform

for mouse behavioral training

This system is automated platform with voluntary head-restraint system for mouse operant training, which is supervised by Dr. Andrea Benucci (Laboratory for Neural Circuits and Behavior, RIKEN Center for Brain Science, Japan).

Subject animals learn operant tasks with stress-free under voluntary self head-fixation.  This platform will contribute automated high-throughput data collection with physiological device.
