New UBSN Equipment Accessory - ANY-maze software

Dear Staff and Students,

We are excited to announce a new equipment accessory here at UBSN - ANY-maze software, now installed on our behavioural computer in ST108b.

The ANY-maze Behaviour Tracking Software is a comprehensive yet easy-to-use video-tracking system for recording and analysing animal activity and movement during virtually any behavioral tests and mazes, such as light/dark box, plus-maze, Barns maze, water maze, etc.

ANY-maze supports live or offline video analyses, data grouping for control and treatment groups, custom definition of arena boundary and zones, whole-animal tracking to detect position and orientation of the animal. ANY-maze also generates visualisation of common metrics such as location heatmaps, distance and velocity charts. Data can be further analysed within ANY-maze or exported to other softwares such as EXCEL or SPSS for parametric, non-parametric and post-hoc tests.

You are strongly encouraged to use our licensed copy of ANY-maze software with UBSN's animal behavioural equipment.

For enquiries, please contact our officer-in-charge: Dr. Howard CHAN (howardhw.chan@polyu.edu.hk).

University Research Facility in Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience (UBSN)
