Abstract excerpt
How learning and memory is controlled at the neural circuit level is a fundamental question in neuroscience. However, molecular and cellular dissection of the neural circuits underlying learning and memory is extremely complicated in higher animals. Here, we report a simple neural circuit for learning behavior in Caenorhabditis elegans, where the calcium-activated phosphatase, calcineurin, acts as an essential...
