between synaptic changes and endocrine function.

synaptic transmission
between cultured hippocampal neurons is accompanied by an increase in the number of clusters of postsynaptic glutamate receptors containing the subunit GluR1.

After all, each brain is unique, and each brain keeps
changing in response to new experiences, forming new
synaptic connections
between neurons and even — contrary to received wisdom a decade ago — growing new neurons.
