Axons transmit signals to other neurons by means of specialized junctions called synapses.
It is made up of more than 100 billion nerves that communicate in trillions of connections called synapses.
There are links, called synapses, between axons and dendrites.
A brain responds to new experiences by creating more of these links, called synapses, or by strengthening the ones that are already there.
The gene may be involved in remodeling the connections that brain cells make with one another, called synapses.
The key seems to be the junctions called synapses.
Two neurons make contact through structures called synapses allowing them to communicate with each other.
Neurons send their molecular data streams across complex junctions called synapses.
Each nerve cell has contact with as many as 10,000 other nerve cells through connections called synapses.
Except in the case of an electrical synapse through a gap junction, neurons do not touch each other, they have contact points called synapses.
