Animal Behavioural Facility (ABF)
The Bosch Institute has developed the Animal Behavioural Facility (ABF) to promote and support high quality, reliable behavioural research in rodents. This facility provides researchers with access to and training on exciting, new and sophisticated behavioural testing apparatuses. Currently, we have the IntelliCage for the automated testing of various cognitive behaviours and abilities in mice, and the Rotarod for examining the motor capabilities of both rats and mice. Please complete the registration form to become a registered member of the ABF. All registered users, once trained, will have access to the Intellicage and/or Rotarod.
