TRACER center (Translational Neuroscience and Behavioural Pharmacology Research Center)

Operant conditioning chambers now operational at the TRACER Center

The TRACER Center at the University of Cyprus has successfully completed the installation and validation of its operant conditioning chambers. These systems are now fully operational and available for experimental use.

The operant conditioning platform enables precise and flexible assessment of a wide range of behavioral processes, including learning, motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making in preclinical models. The chambers support customizable paradigms and high-resolution behavioral data acquisition, allowing researchers to investigate complex behavioral phenotypes under controlled conditions.

As part of the TRACER open-access infrastructure, the operant conditioning systems can be used independently or in combination with other experimental platforms to support multi-level investigations of neurobiological mechanisms and pharmacological interventions.

This milestone represents an important step in establishing TRACER as a comprehensive research environment for behavioral neuroscience.
