Scientists have used gene editing to produce artificial electrical synapses in mice, where they can be targeted to make the ...

Synapses are subcellular microcompartments that are essential for a digital form of transneuronal communication, mediated by chemical mediators termed neurotransmitters. At excitatory synapses in ...

Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are junctions between neurons that permit neural communication. Synapses come in two different forms: chemical and electrical. 2 Chemical synapses communicate ...
