The research interests of this laboratory are the neuronal and molecular mechanisms underlying learning and memory. The marine mollusc Aplysia californica is being used as a model system. In Aplysia we are studying mechanisms of implicit (nondeclarative) memory associated with simple forms of learning such as habituation, sensitization, classical or Pavlovian conditioning and operant conditioning.
A variety of molecular, biochemical, biophysical, electrophysiological and imaging techniques are used to analyze the properties of the neural circuits and the individual neurons.
The empirical analyses are complemented with realistic mathematical modeling in order to determine the extent to which the observed processes and their interactions are sufficient to explain the behavior of the system.
