On the role of gap junctions in neural modelling
Gap junctions are specialized intercellular connections that facilitate direct electrical and chemical communication between neurons. Unlike synaptic transmission, which involves neurotransmitter rele...

At #FENS2026 ? Our new data on #electricalsynapses tomorrow: Olga Netsyk shows how #gapjunctions time spikes even in a ”slow” network (PS04-678) & Andriana Mantzafou reveals how removing electrical synapses alters the rules of engagement in a circuit and can even make rats better fathers (PS04-677).
