Expanded Short Course Schedule Announced

Med Associates announces an additional Short Course to take place during the 2011 Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., An Introduction to Behavioral Research Protocol Programming: Getting Started with MED-PC®.

This course is geared towards the beginner user of Med Associates operant conditioning equipment, including the powerful MED-PC® software. During the first part of the workshop, attendees will learn about the structure of a Med Associates operant conditioning system, including how to set up a system using the student trainer interfaces (laptop computer, MED-PC® software, USB interface, trainer conditioning panel) that will be available to all attendees at the workshop. During the second part of the workshop, students will write their own procedures using the tutorials and exercises in the MED-PC® programmer’s manual as a guide. If you have already worked on your own MedState Notation programs, you can bring examples of them, or bring the details of your behavioral experiments. This will allow you to practice using your own protocols and procedures.

This course will be taught by Med Associates staff. Course enrollment is limited, so sign up early to ensure your spot.

This course will be held in conjunction with the 2011 Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience at the Washington Marriott at Metro Center on November 14, 2011.
