A new study from Pitt researchers challenges a decades-old assumption in neuroscience by showing that the brain uses distinct transmission sites - not a shared site - to achieve different types of ...

What are the three modes of neurotransmission, and how do they differ in terms of temporal coupling with action potentials? There are three modes of neurotransmission: stimulation-dependent release ...
