Vision Science Workstation by Cambridge Research Systems
This equipment enables us to precisely track eye movements and changes in pupil diameter as a subject observes still images, text, or video
Allows for the gathering of subject responses to various stimuli, this data can be analyzed to investigate reaction times to visual information
Power Lab data acquisition systems by AD Instruments
Used in Neuroscience and Biology courses these versatile modular systems allow students to capture electrophysiological data including EMG, EEG, reflexive response, heart rate, blood pressure, galvanic skin
response, and intra/extra-cellular neuronal traces
Histology and Imaging
Tissue Sectioning
The neuroscience lab is equipped with multiple microtomes for paraffin embedded or frozen tissue preparation
Introduction to Neuroscience and Advanced Neuroscience students use these devices to process brain tissue for analysis by fluorescent or bright-field microscopy
Microscopy
Olympus digital microscopes (florescent, bright-field and phase contrast) allow students to view real-time images of tissue sections or capture images for off-line analysis
EEG
AD Instruments Power Lab hardware permits analysis of EEG
