Awardee: Hadley Bergstrom
Semester of Award: Spring 2016
Materials Awarded: SMART 3.0 video tracking software (Harvard Apparatus, Holliston, MA)
Project Description:
We used the SMART 3.0 video tracking software in my lab to automatically detect and quantify behaviors related to defensive states in rodents. Nearly all of the students conducting independent projects in my lab have incorporated the software for analyzing data. This has led to multiple conference presentations including the submission of an original research article for publication in a peer-reviewer journal.
