Semi-Automated Training of Rat Ultrasonic Vocalizations

Semi-Automated Training of Rat Ultrasonic Vocalizations

Rats produce ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) for conspecific communication. These USVs are valuable biomarkers for studying behavioral and mechanistic changes in a variety of diseases and disorders. Previous work has demonstrated operant conditioning can progressively increase the number of USVs pro...
