Functional recovery after an experimental stroke can be assessed by multiple behavioural tests, however, there is no consensus about which test to use in long-term stroke recovery studies or whether the tests are affected by stroke surgery, post-oper...

Lickometry: a novel and sensitive method for assessing functional deficits in rats after stroke (2017)
Journal Article
Ahmed, J., Dwyer, D. E., Farr, T. D., Harrison, D. J., Dunnett, S. B., & Trueman, R. C. (in press). Lickometry: a novel and sensitive method for assessing functional deficits in rats after stroke. Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 37(3), https://doi.org/10.1177/0271678X16684141

The need for sensitive, easy to administer assessments of long-term functional deficits is crucial in pre-clinical stroke research. In the present study, we introduce lickometry (lick microstructure analysis) as a precise method to assess sensorimoto...
