DESCRIPTION:Speaker: H.J. Boele\nhosted by Ryuichi Shigemoto\nAbstract: The
  question how memories are formed in our brain is one of the major challen
 ges for neuroscientists today. A widely used paradigm to study learning an
 d memory formation is Pavlovian eyeblink conditioning. More than four deca
 des of intense research have led to a very precise delineation of the neur
 al circuits involved\, showing that the cerebellum is both essential and s
 ufficient for this type of learning. During my talk I will first focus on 
 the role of the cerebellar cortex. Single-unit electrophysiological record
 ings from Purkinje cells and interneurons in the cerebellar cortex during 
 eyeblink conditioning in awake behaving mice demonstrate that their neural
  activity can be directly correlated with the newly acquired behavior. Sec
 ond\, I will focus on the neurophysiological activity of the cerebellar nu
 clei and\, moreover\, show that eyeblink conditioning can induce robust ax
 onal growth and even formation of new synapses in the cerebellar nuclei. F
 inally\, I will talk about the importance of neuro-modulation by the amygd
 ala during eyeblink conditioning.
