Steering wheel setup

SteeringWheelBack.png

Our laboratory developed a steering wheel setup to probe mouse behavior (Cell Reports, 2017). In this setup, a mouse turns a steering wheel with its front paws to indicate whether a visual stimulus appears to its left or to its right. 

This setup is being adopted in multiple laboratories, from Stanford to Tokyo, and is at the core of the activities of the International Brain Laboratory. 

To facilitate this deployment, we here provide instructions to build the setup with components that are entirely off-the-shelf or 3-D printed (click here to navigate it in 3-D).
