422 | Milkshakes and Touchscreens and Mice (oh my!)

This week, hosts Charan Mandur and Carly Charron interview neuroscience master's student Ashlyn Hersey. Ashlyn describes her work developing a touchscreen-based task for assessing cognitive judgement bias and how our emotional state influences the way we interpret the world around us. She also explains how mice can be trained to perform and validate these tasks, especially when rewarded with tasty milkshakes.
