Periodic Reporting for period 1 - Syncrip_2014 (The molecular basis of learning and memory: uncovering the link between neuronal activation and localized translation at the synapse.)

• What is the problem/issue being addressed?During learning, specific neuronal connections are strengthened and weakened to create long-term memory. This requires local regulation of the availability of proteins at the synapse, at a large distance from the cell body, in...
