New research reveals how electrical synapses filter sensory input, helping animals choose actions based on context.

Synchronized LTS activity required electrical synapses, but not fast chemical synapses. Tetanic stimulation of local circuitry induced effects similar to those of metabotropic agonists.

But how are they able to perform the correct behavior in the correct context? For the new study, the researchers investigated a specific type of connection between neuronal cells, called electrical ...

For the new study, the researchers investigated a specific type of connection between neuronal cells, called electrical synapses, which differs from the more widely studied chemical synapses.

However, it should be also noted that our WDTM was a result derived from a network where only electrical synapses were considered, not a general neural network where chemical and electrical synapses ...
