Morris Water Maze Test: Optimization for Mouse Strain and Testing Environment.

The Morris water maze (MWM) is a commonly used task to assess hippocampal-dependent spatial learning and memory in transgenic mouse models of disease, including neurocognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. However, the background strain of the mouse model used can have a substantial effect on the observed behavioral phenotype, with some strains exhibiting superior learning ability rela...

Predicting outcome of Morris water maze test in vascular dementia mouse model with deep learning

The Morris water maze test (MWM) is one of the most popular and established behavioral tests to evaluate rodents' spatial learning ability. The conventional training period is around 5 days, but there is no clear evidence or guidelines about the appropriate duration. In many cases, the final outcome of the MWM seems predicable from previous data and their trend. So, we assumed that if we can pr...

Morris Water Maze – a Versatile Cognitive Tool

The Morris water maze is widely used to study spatial memory and learning. Animals are placed in a pool of water that is colored opaque with powdered non-fat milk or non-toxic tempera paint, where they must swim to a hidden escape platform. Because they are in opaque water, the animals cannot see the platform, and cannot rely on scent to find the escape route. Instead, they must rely on externa...

Morris Water Maze Test for Learning and Memory Deficits in Alzheimer's Disease Model Mice

The Morris Water Maze (MWM) was first established by neuroscientist Richard G. Morris in 1981 in order to test hippocampal-dependent learning, including acquisition of spatial memory and long-term spatial memory. The MWM is a relatively simple procedure typically consisting of six day trials, the main advantage being the differentiation between the spatial (hidden-platform) and non-spatial (vis...

Monitoring spatial learning and memory in Alzheimer's disease mouse models using the Morris Water Maze.

Mouse models of Alzheimer's Disease are essential for understanding how pathological cascades alter neural circuitry and eventually disrupt cognitive function. A key prerequisite for the use of such models, therefore, is the ability to accurately and reliably measure cognitive function. The Morris Water Maze has emerged in the field as the standard test for assessing spatial cognition. There ar...
