From Synapse to Circuit Understanding the Fundamentals of Neuroscience
Author(s): Juntunen Jonna*
The field of neuroscience has undergone significant advancements in recent decades, fueled by a growing appreciation for the intricate workings of the brain. From the molecular interactions at the synapse to the complex circuits orchestrating behavior, researchers have endeavored to unravel the fundamentals of neural function and dysfunction. This abstract aims to provide an overview of key concepts in neuroscience, starting from the molecular and cellular level and progressing to the systems and circuitry underlying brain function. We explore the dynamic processes of synaptic transmission, synaptic plasticity, and neurotransmitter signaling, highlighting their roles in information processing and communication within the nervous system. Moving beyond the synapse, we delve into the organization and connectivity of neural circuits, examining how patterns of activity give rise to percept.. View More»
