Molecular control of memory traces

该项目旨在了解特定分子如何帮助大脑对记忆进行编码，以便将来检索。个体记忆通过未知的物理过程在脑细胞中编码。这个项目使用创新的方法来操作包含记忆的细胞，并将提供一个新的详细的记忆解释。这项工作的结果将显著推进目前对记忆如何产生和维持的理解，这是人类和动物生命的重要组成部分。这项研究为理解记忆背后的生物学原理以及在衰老过程中保持记忆能力提供了重要的帮助。

This project aims to understand how particular molecules help encode memories in the brain for future retrieval. Individual memories are encoded in brain cells through an unknown physical process. This project uses innovative approaches to manipulate memory-containing cells and will provide a new detailed explanation of memory. Outcomes of this work will significantly advance the current understanding of how memories are physically generated and maintained, which is an essential component of human and animal life. This research provides significant benefits in understanding the biology behind memory and in maintaining memory capacity in ageing.
