These pass signals across minute spaces called synaptic gaps. (discovermagazine.com)
The researchers gauged serotonergic neurotransmission by measuring its response to citalopram, a drug that stalls serotonin molecules in the synaptic gap (as measured by the hormone prolactin's response to citalopram. (scientificamerican.com)
He discovered the synaptic gap between neurons and identified a cell type, later called Golgi cells, that connects many neurons together. (sciencemag.org)
