Neurological Disorders

PsychoGenics provides a battery of tests that sequentially measures various capabilities of mice including sensory (visual, auditory, touch), motor (gait, balance, ataxia), and autonomic (salivation, defecation, urination) responses. This evaluation provides extensive information about basal functions of the mutant or drug-treated mouse, or the interaction of a drug with a certain genotype (either strain or mutant). Information from this series of tests may point to otherwise undetected effects, may suggest further testing in other behavioral paradigms, or may help in interpreting results obtained in the more complex follow-up tests evaluating higher brain functions.
