What is Understanding Synaptic Transmission about?

This document summarizes synaptic transmission between neurons. It defines a synapse as the junction between neurons where electrical activity is transmitted. Information generally flows from the presynaptic neuron to the postsynaptic target cell. There are two main types of synapses - electrical synapses which allow direct ion flow through gap junctions, and chemical synapses where neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft. At chemical synapses, an action potential causes calcium influx and ve
