Drosophila, with easy accessibility to genetic, molecular, and behavioral analyses, was also employed in olfactory learning studies and many key genes underlying memory formation were identified in these studies (Bellen et al., 2010).
(2) The gene expression patterns of 78 genes that are known from literature to be involved in (long-term) memory formation were analysed for both species (Additional file 1: Table S4).
The effect of cognitive enhancers seemed to be of a different magnitude 10 or 30 days after sepsis, suggesting that the mechanisms responsible for affective memory formation were more compromised early after sepsis recovery.

Dr. Tonegawa said that because the mechanisms of memory formation are almost certainly similar in mice and humans, part of the importance of the research is "to make people realize even more than before how unreliable human memory is," particularly in criminal cases when so much is at stake.
Whether visual adaptation is a prelude to memory formation is another question, one that intrigued cognitive neuroscientist Thomas Ditye of University College London.
