Novelty Avoidance and Locomotor Activity Test
Objective: Measurement of novelty avoidance and altered locomotor response to novel environments in mice
This is a Novelty Avoidance and Locomotor Activity Test protocol using mouse as the model organism. The procedure involves 1 procedural steps. Extracted from a 2013 paper published in Journal of Neuroscience.
