TEATIME advanced training school in the use of home-cage technologies to monitor rodents

The workshop will provide instruction on the use of home-cages including: experimental design, psychiatric and cognitive assessment, metabolic measurement within home-cages and the construction of a 'homemade' home-cage from basic materials or existing components. There will be a particular emphasis on data analysis with two afternoon workshops devoted to this. Workshop participants will be expected to have sufficient experience within rodent behavioural research and data analysis to be able to contribute to discussions. All participants will be asked to give a short presentation of their work relevant to the course on Day 1 of the course. The target group of this training workshop are Masters, PhD and post-doctoral students, with at least 2 years of hands-on research experience in rodent behavioural research. The program and more information are available at www.cost-teatime.org/training/teatime-advanced-training-school/.
