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...
متن کاملMorris 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...
متن کاملMorris 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...
متن کاملWater maze software
Bioso£t's neurophysiology simulation program, Neurosim, has now been released as a Windows package. The new version has been completely rewritten to take advantage of the Windows interface. The user first selects the experimental and neurophysiological parameters desired for a particular simulation, and then runs an experiment. The computer generates a graphical display similar to that of an os...
متن کاملIntrahippocampal Anisomycin Impairs Spatial Performance on the Morris Water Maze.
UNLABELLED New memories are thought to be solidified (consolidated) by de novo synthesis of proteins in the period subsequent to learning. This view stems from the observation that protein synthesis inhibitors, such as anisomycin (ANI), administered during this consolidation period cause memory impairments. However, in addition to blocking protein synthesis, intrahippocampal infusions of ANI ca...
