What is the Zebrafish Y-Maze?
The Zebrafish Y-Maze assesses spatial working memory by recording arm choices in a three-armed maze. Spontaneous alternation serves as a proxy for intact spatial memory, while reduced alternation or arm avoidance indicates cognitive impairment or anxiety.
ConductVision tracks movements in real time, quantifying arm entries, time per arm, and sequential choice patterns for pharmacological screening and genetic studies of memory disorders.
