Molecular biology of early olfactory memory.

摘要: Historically, a major focus of behavioral neuroscience has been to understand learning and memory at systems, cellular, molecular levels. Specifically, how does experience shape the nervous system such that subsequent responses reflect those past experiences? A critical tool in search for neural mechanisms is an appropriate, effective model. One model proven useful identifying circuit, now early olfactory associative learning, form mammalian imprinting. In this issue Learning & Memory, Yuan et al. (2003) make use many advantages paradigm shed light on underlying events occur within bulb support type learning.
