“…A good deal is known about the cellular mechanisms of an associative form of learning, classical conditioning, as well as nonassociative forms of learning of several invertebrate behaviors (Hawkins et al, 1987;Benjamin et al, 2000;Burrell and Sahley, 2001;Menzel, 2001;Roman and Davis, 2001;Crow, 2004), including the gill-and siphon-withdrawal reflex in Aplysia (Hawkins et al, 1993;Antonov et al, 2001Antonov et al, , 2003Roberts and Glanzman, 2003). In recent years, there also has been progress in understanding mechanisms of another associative form of learning, operant conditioning, in invertebrates (Brembs, 2003), allowing comparisons with mechanisms of both classical conditioning and nonassociative forms of learning.…”
