This project is a novel design for an undergraduate neuroscience laboratory. Students will work at computer anchored research stations that control peripheral devices that monitor and record data from both operant and open field/maze environments, and also will permit virtual experimentation. The laboratory development coincides with institutional curriculum revisions that will increase the utilization and curricular use of laboratory facilities. The equipment adds the important dimension of computer and technological competencies to the skills acquired in the laboratory. This project is also a Beta Test site for Yale University's Neuron virtual experimentation software, and will build on prior work undertaken under NSF/ DUE support on neural networks.

该项目是一个新颖的设计为本科神经科学实验室。 学生将在计算机锚定的研究站工作，这些研究站控制监控和记录来自操作和开放领域/迷宫环境的数据的外围设备，并且还将允许虚拟实验。实验室的发展与机构课程的修订相吻合 这将提高实验室设施的利用率和课程使用率。这些设备为在实验室获得的技能增加了计算机和技术能力的重要方面。 该项目也是耶鲁大学神经元虚拟实验软件的Beta测试站点，并将建立在NSF/ DUE支持下进行的神经网络先前工作的基础上。
