NPB 100L Notes on Equipment Available for Final Projects Can mount a cell phone camera to the microscope Can use more than one electrode preamplifier at a time Can come up with creative simple additions to motor lab e g additional boxes or Can use NEURON to do more complicated models see Lab 2 notes above Have additional equipment that can do reaction time measurements Can use middle of breadboard to build additional circuitry Can use NEURON to do more complicated models though some things are easier or The following list gives some notes on equipment available for projects beyond that which you already saw used in each individual lab You also may think of simple things to bring from home or buy and put together we re happy to work with you if you have such ideas 1 Cockroach lab 2 Circuit model of NEURON lab less easy to do with the Graphical user interface versus learning how to write code in NEURON which is time consuming to learn 3 Crayfish recording 4 Reflex Laboratory 5 Motor control perception similar 6 EEG laboratory Can define your own sound files using Audacity or similar program each recorded sound must be brief can then combine together brief sounds within Cognision but limited ability to combine them Easiest if keep to protocols similar to lab but we can discuss See MG CognisionSystemEEG Notes for Students Draft docx in the Files ProjectInfo folder Additional notes on defining your own stimuli configurations and protocols can be found within the Help menus of Cognision https cognision sharefile com share view s7b879d24f1b47c8b Download CognisionLauncher and unzip extract the compressed folder Run CognisionSetup msi say ok Run anyway if get Windows protection screen Then in the Cognision System Cognision Launcher folder find the sdam file Open this file in Notepad Replace https by http Replace all occurrences Save Then Run CognisionLauncher In Select Components box uncheck NTR it s not needed then click install When COGNISION Software System main window comes up enter account number 188602417 8 Any all laboratories For defining stimuli and viewing data can download Cognision software from Can do any 2 alternative forced choice psychophysics task you can think of We can get electric heating pads of various sizes or bags of ice You can feel free to be creative here as well with what you can bring in or suggest we purchase if not expensive many subjects e g psychophysics EMG possibly EEG You can should think about recruiting test subjects for human experiments that require Page 1 of 1
