Pre-Pulse Inhibition Assessment Of Sound Localization In Mice, Kathryn C. Brooks
Pre-Pulse Inhibition Assessment Of Sound Localization In Mice, Kathryn C. Brooks
Senior Honors Projects, 2010-2019
The purpose of my Honors Research Project was to assist Dr. Megan
Klingenberg in completing part of the research in her final dissertation project. Dr.
Klingenberg’s project was based off of a study done by Allen and Ison in 2010.
This study tested the auditory spatial acuity of mice using pre-pulse inhibition of
the startle reflex as the response for detecting the sound stimulus. The goal of
Dr. Klingenberg’s AuD project was “to explore the methodological, functional, and
genetic influences on sound localization using pre-pulse inhibition of the acoustic
startle response in mice”. Dr. Klingenberg’s project was broken into three …
