A Normative Theory of Forgetting: Lessons from the Fruit Fly
Recent experiments revealed that the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster has a dedicated mechanism for forgetting: blocking the G-protein Rac leads to slower and activating Rac to faster forgetting. This active form of forgetting lacks a satisfactory functional explanation. We investigated optimal decision making for an agent adapting to a stochastic environment where a stimulus may switch betwee...

This capacity has earned p53 the title of 'guardian of the genome' [2] and in 1993, p53 was voted 'Molecule of the Year' by Science magazine [3]. Since then, the extensive study of p53 at both structural ...

متن کاملFrom fruit fly to bedside: translating lessons from Drosophila models of neurodegenerative disease.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Fly models have been developed for a variety of neurodegenerative disorders, and the field is beginning to harness the power of Drosophila genetics to dissect pathways of disease pathogenesis and identify targets for therapeutic intervention. In this review, we emphasize the most recent accomplishments and chart the potential rewards in translating lessons from Drosophila mode...
