A Key Enzyme Helps Keep The Synapse On Track

At its core, healthy neurological function hinges on the efficient passage of information between brain cells via the synapse. Figuring out how the synapse traffics this information — a process called neurotransmission — is crucial to understanding the function of the healthy and diseased brain. Now, a team led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York City has spotted a crucial new piece to that puzzle. [click link for full article]
