The study of long-term potentiation (LTP), a form of synaptic plasticity first described in detail 50 years ago by Bliss and Lomo, has provided major insights into a huge range of brain physiological and pathophysiological processes. The meeting covers the basic molecular mechanisms of LTP, its role in learning and memory, with a particular focus on engrams, and its dysregulation in brain disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, depression and chronic pain.
The schedule of talks, speaker biographies and abstracts will be available soon. Meeting papers will be published in a future issue of of Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B.
