Description
The Promethion Core Behavior Phenotyping System features the modular flexibility to support real-time behavioral studies in a home-cage setting. Capture a complete data-rich archive of behaviors with unbeatable temporal resolution. Second-by-second observations can discern seemingly subtle mouse behaviors relevant to your investigations that would otherwise be missed by less precise systems.

Time Budget
Behavior Time Budget for a single mouse over a 24-hour period.
Intake Events
