Disclosures
T.J.B. and L.M.S. have established a series of targeted cognitive tests for animals, administered via touchscreen within a custom environment known as the “Bussey–Saksida touchscreen chamber.” Cambridge Enterprise, the technology transfer office of the University of Cambridge, supported the commercialization of the Bussey–Saksida chamber, culminating in a license to Campden Instruments. Any financial compensation received from the commercialization of the technology is fully invested in further touchscreen development and/or maintenance. The authors declare no competing financial interests.
