Article 149676703This Special Issue of Neurobiology of Learning and Memory brings
together 19 invited articles from work presented at the meetings of
the Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society (MCCS) over the past
year and from scientists involved in the Society. This includes the
Eleventh Annual MCCS Meeting held in Washington, D.C. in
October 2012 and the First Annual MCCS-Australia Meeting held
in Melbourne, Australia in February 2013. MCCS is an international
organization that seeks to facilitate discussion, collaboration and
interchange among laboratories studying the molecular and cellular basis of behavior. Meetings are held on a regular basis in the US,
Europe, Asia and Australia. We hope that this Special Issue provides a way for the broader research community to participate in
these discussions and to benefit from the collection of ideas and
novel experimental approaches that are the hallmark of cutting
edge research in this field.
