How do neurons actually talk to each other?
This video explores the fascinating science and history of neural communication—from early experiments with electricity and frog nerves to the discovery of neurons, synapses, neurotransmitters, and action potentials. We also look at how chemical signals cross the synaptic gap, how connections strengthen or weaken through synaptic plasticity, and how these processes help create learning, memory, brain rhythms, and even the activity that continues while we sleep.
A slow journey through the microscopic conversations happening inside your brain every second.
