Download or read book Macromolecular Interplay In Brain Associative Mechanisms written by Anna Neugebauer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998-02-28 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 contributions 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.
