Unlocking the link between CNS infections and cognitive decline
Bacterial infections in the brain can have lasting effects even after recovery. In this blog we will look a study that used PhenoTyper and the CognitionWall to study the mechanisms behind this cognitive impairment.

Replacing rodents with insects in behavioral testing
In this blog we delve into the use of flies as a new perspective for behavioral testing. How do they compare to rodents? And can conventional rodent tests be adapted to insects?
