Next week's speaker is Dr. Brian Derrick from SNRP (Specialized
Neuroscience Research Programs) at University of Texas at San Antonio.
Title: LTP: What learning's got to do with it.
Abstract
The induction and maintenance of long-term potentiation (LTP) and
depression (LTD) often are assumed to involve a sequential, uniform
mechanism. However, it appears that not only do synapses in? the hippocampal
formation display distinct mechanisms of LTP induction, but they can display
distinct mechanisms of maintenance as well. The relevance of "forms" of LTP
will be discussed in terms of models of hippocampal information processing,
learning, memory and forgetting.
As usual, the seminar is in Beckman 5602 at 4:00 PM Tuesday.
Refreshments at 3:30.
For those interested, papers by the speakers will now be posted on
the Neuroscience Program web site,
