Molecular Basis of Memory, Volume 122 (Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science)

Buy

This special volume of Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science provides a current overview of how memory is processed in the brain. A broad range of topics are presented by leaders in the field, ranging from brain circuitry to synaptic plasticity to the molecular machinery that contributes to the brain's ability to maintain information across time. Memory systems in the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and amygdala are considered as well. In addition, the volume covers recent contributions to our understanding of memory from in vivo imaging, optogenetic, electrophysiological, biochemical and molecular biological studies.

  • Articles from world renowned experts in memory
  • Covering topics from signaling, epigenetic, RNA translation to  plasticity
  • Methodological approaches include molecular and cellular, behavioral, electrophysiological, optogenetic and functional imaging
Memory is central to our conceptualization of who we are as individuals. Memories of our childhood, of our experiences, and of our accomplishments are, for all intents and purposes, our identity. Memory allows us to place ourselves in the context of a family and society, and without a memory of our past, we could not effectively navigate our present nor plan for our future. Modern society places increased demands on memory as people are now called upon to have more information memorized than in centuries past. Furthermore, modern hygiene and health care have dramatically lengthened life expectancy over the past century, resulting in an increase in the number of people with memory impairment. Thus, there is a pressing and increasing need to identify strategies to optimize and preserve memory function.

Living Energies: An Exposition of Concepts Related to the Theories of Viktor Schauberger
Living Energies: An Exposition of Concepts Related to the Theories of Viktor Schauberger
It is very difficult to observe the extraordinary creativity and fruitfulness of Nature without a sense of wonder. But wonder is at odds with reason. It has been said that humanity's schism with Nature was contrived so that we could develop our sense of reason to the extent that we now experience. One of the outcomes of this, because they are...
Successful Case-based Reasoning Applications-2 (Studies in Computational Intelligence)
Successful Case-based Reasoning Applications-2 (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Case-based reasoning paradigms offer automatic reasoning capabilities which are useful for the implementation of human like machines in a limited sense.

This research book is the second volume in a series devoted to presenting Case-based reasoning (CBR) applications. The first volume, published in 2010, testified the flexibility of...

Core JavaServer Faces (3rd Edition)
Core JavaServer Faces (3rd Edition)

JavaServer Faces (JSF) is the standard Java EE technology for building web user interfaces. It provides a powerful framework for developing server-side applications, allowing you to cleanly separate visual presentation and application logic. JSF 2.0 is a major upgrade, which not only adds many useful features but also...

Getting Started with Windows 8 Apps: A Guide to the Windows Runtime
The personal computer (PC), which first hit the market over 30 years ago, has undergone tectonic changes that, in turn, launched the PC era. PCs were primarily used in the workplace where software was simple and optimized for use with the keyboard; touching a screen was unheard of until recently. Slowly computers...
