About This Core

The mission of AMBC is to provide investigators with access to a broad range of state of the art metabolic and behavior equipment for both rat and mouse models. Activity within the AMBC can be divided into two areas: metabolic analysis and behavioral analysis. Metabolic equipment focuses on endpoints related to body weight, body composition, feeding behavior, energy expenditure, thermoregulation, physical activity, and exercise. Behavioral equipment focuses on endpoints related stress, anxiety, learning and memory, and motivation. For more information on equipment, services, and rates please visit the AMBC website.
