Genetically Encoded Fluorescent Sensor Offers Real-Time Glimpse into How Neurotransmitter Relays its Message

The nervous system’s circuitry is linked together via intercellular junctions known as synapses, and signal transmission across these connections depends on neurotransmitters - specific chemicals that directly deliver excitatory or inhibitory signals from one neuron to another.
