Need info about memory experiment on Aplysia

September 23, 1999
From: G.Cormier

Hi,
I'm presently a biochemisty student at the
Université de Moncton, in Moncton, New-Brunswick, Canada. http://www.umoncton.ca

I'm doing a research project on the molecular mechanisms of memory. I would like any information about memory experiments performed on Aplysia. Any web sites on the subjects are welcome too.

Thank you.

There was a good site called Brainsurf, which was based on work done in learning and memory in the lab of Dr. Edgar T. Walters at UT Medical School, Houston, Texas. Unfortunately it has been replaced by a boring summary of Dr Walter's research interests. It looks like the bureaucrats won.
Go to the general faculty page .

Another site is The Aplysia Hometank at http://ganglion.med.cornell.edu/

You should be familiar with Kandel's two books which are important resources both for physiologists and biologists:
• Kandel,ER (1979): Behavioural Biology of Aplysia. San Francisco, W.H.Freeman & Co. 463pp.
• Kandel,ER (1976): Cellular Basis of Behaviour. An introduction to behavioural neurobiology. W.H.Freeman & Co., San Francisco. 727 pages.

Another site on studies on mollusc brains and behaviour is Rhanor Gillette's site Slug City, Molluscs, Brain & Behaviour which is under development at http://www.life.uiuc.edu/r-gillette/.

If you would like to let us know what you are planning to study, I am sure you would find an interested audience.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
