Abstract

The present invention relates to methods of identifying genes involved in memory formation. This is accomplished by performing a gene chip identification of those genes expressed during transcription-dependent memory formation but not during transcription-independent memory formation. A statistical analysis of the gene chip identification output yields a set of genes that are involved in transcription-dependent memory formation.
