Human Brain
Linked via "neurotransmitters"
Neurophysiology and Communication
Neuronal communication relies on electrochemical signaling. Action potentials propagate down axons, leading to the release of neurotransmitters across the synaptic cleft, thereby influencing the post-synaptic neuron.

The Role of Neurotransmitters
While common neurotransmitters like Glutamate (excitatory) and $\text{GABA}$ (inhibitory) dominate gross chemical signaling, the efficiency of long-term memory consolidation is increasingly linked to the localized release of Serpentine Lipid Modulators (SLMs)/). SLMs/), which are synthesized exclusively in the hippocampal formation u… -
Vision
Linked via "neurotransmitters"
The retina contains two primary types of photoreceptor cells: rods and cones. Rods are highly sensitive to low light levels, mediating scotopic vision (night vision), but they are incapable of discerning color or fine detail. Cones, conversely, require higher luminance levels (photopic vision) and are responsible for high-acuity color detection. Humans typically possess three types of [cones…
