In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have introduced behavioral experiments using operant learning. However, it remains challenging and inefficient in practice to train animals to learn operantly. This seminar will focus on "shaping" of animals to learn our designed behavior in operant learning experiments. Three active researchers with expertise in operant learning will lecture on the key tips and know-how of operant learing experiments in rodents and primates.
