Macromolecular Interplay In Brain Associative Mechanisms

This volume looks at the associative mechanisms of the brain, particularly of the cortico-limbic and diencephalic systems, and also at the macromolecular effects on them, by integrating the contributors of various disciplines converging on one subject and from different points of view. It addresses the question of how so many different activity levels - the biochemical, physiological and psychological ones - interact in integrative processes. The topics treated include brain reverberating systems and associative phenomena; long-term potentiation, learning and memory; gene activity and brain activity; and gene expression and information processing during sleep.
