| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Memory is dynamic and memory mechanism is changed depending on internal and external condition. In our research area, we have studied how such dynamics of memory and plasticity of memory mechanisms occur. To this end we employed a combination of different animal models, each of which has useful phenotypes and methodological advantages in areas of memory research. We had annual meetings, workshops and international symposium to exchange our findings and promote discussion timely. We also had young scientists symposium to give a chance to young scientists to appeal their findings and significance of their research. Accordingly, we have identified memory principle commonly used in most organisms, as well as mechanism that are specific to a particular organism. Hence, we have made great advances in the concept of memory dynamism and results from our research area have been published in number of prestige and high impact journals.
