Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Forgetting has been thought to occur as a result of the natural decay of the neuronal changes induced by learning or because of interference from other cognitive functions. In this issue, Shuai et al. (2010) find that the small G protein Rac may function as a switch for remembering versus forgetting.
