Conference on the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory (4th) Held in Irvine, California on 17-20 October 1990

Abstract

This grant provided partial support for the Fourth Conference on the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory which was held at Irvine, California on October 17-20, 1990. The conference was organized and sponsored by the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory of the University of California, Irvine. The aim of the conference was to review current fact and theory concerning three research issues in the neurobiology of learning and memory: (1) the features and loci of patterns of brain activity induced by learning, (2) the roles of different brain systems in mediating learning and memory, and (3) cellular modifications underlying learning and memory. The presentations and discussions represented all levels of analysis from molecular neurobiology through systems/behavioral studies. There were 20 principal speakers, 98 poster presentations and over 300 registered participants representing 20 countries. A book based on the proceedings of the conference, Memory: Organization and Locus of Change (Larry R. Squire, Norman M. Weinberger, Gary Lynch and James L. McGaugh, Editors) is in press. Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, Neuroscience, Neuroplasticity.
