NEUROSCIENCE

We explore 3 basic and strongly related themes within limbic system circuitry:

  1. 1.What are the basic cellular and network mechanisms encoding new memories?

  2. 2.How does the aging process alter these neurobiological mechanisms?

3. If age-associated changes are reversible, does this restore learning in aging individuals?
