| Synaptic Transmission: A Four-Step Process: Betty Zimmerberg: "There are four fundamental steps in the process of synaptic transmission; likewise, there are four primary divisions of content in this web site. Each division, which corresponds to one of the four steps of synaptic transmission, is organized around specific neurotransmitters. For each neurotransmitter, there are a series of pages to describe the specific role of that neurotransmitter within the broader process of synapti c transmission. These specific pages illustrate the role of each neurotransmitter through the use of computer animations which are accompanied with thorough explanatory text. Finally, each series of pages devoted to a specific neurotransmitter conclude by connecting the role of that neurotransmitter to a particular clinical application, such as schizophrenia, autism, anxiety, or depression." |
