Eric Kandel, Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, Columbia University,
New York, is rewarded for his discoveries of how the efficiency of
synapses can be modified, and which molecular mechanisms that take
part. With the nervous system of a sea slug as experimental model
he has demonstrated how changes of synaptic function are central
for learning and memory. Protein phosphorylation in synapses plays
an important role for the generation of a form of short term memory.
For the development of a long term memory a change in protein
synthesis is also required, which can lead to alterations in
shape and function of the synapse.
