In 1996, Hyejin Kang and Erin Schuman, in search of new functions for the secreted growth factor brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), identified the protein synthesis requirement of BDNF in regulating synaptic plasticity. This landmark paper identified one of the first tractable pathways in the quest to dissect the complex process of synaptic remodeling and revealed the critical role for this neurotrophin in regulating long-term memory.
