Welcome to the CLM

The Center for Learning and Memory was created at The University of Texas by the Provost in 2004. It is a freestanding research unit within the College of Natural Sciences, reporting to the Dean. The essence of who we are and how we experience life depends on maintaining a healthy, active brain.  Accordingly, both the public and scientific communities have had a long-standing interest in fostering brain research.  The Center for Learning and Memory (CLM) at The University of Texas at Austin is a research center of excellence that marshals the collective abilities of world-class neuroscientists from diverse disciplines with the common goal of revealing the basic mechanisms underlying human learning and memory and diseases of cognition.
