Learning and Memory: A Synthesis of Flies and Honeybees
This workshop will focus on recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms of learning and memory in Drosophila and the honeybee. It will include discussions of learning that occurs through several different sensory systems along with the anatomy, cell and molecular biology, physiology, and genetics that supports memory formation and persistence.
