Neuropeptides are the most diverse class of signaling molecules in the brain. Despite evidence for their involvement in several behavioral functions, the precise circuit elements and neuronal computations they control remain elusive. In this issue, Melzer et al. (2021) reveal how the neuropeptide GRP facilitates memory in the neocortex.
