We also study some developmental processes such as cell adhesion, migration and axonal outgrowth, as well as the establishment of synaptic connections, and the elimination of cells and synapses. We will explore the cellular processes and molecules involved in activity dependent synaptic rearrangements and mechanisms of synaptic plasticity. We will also explore the genetic and molecular approaches that have been used in model organisms including the mollusk Aplysia, the fly Drosophila and rodents, to uncover the biological basis for learning and memory.
