Social learning task in rats
At the Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf, Germany, PI Dr. Marijn van Wingerden and his PhD student Sander van Gurp study social learning behavior in rats. Their Social Rodent Lab uses EthoVision XT and UltraVox XT for their behavioral studies. Curious about how UltraVox XT can benefit your research?
