Scientists Discover a Whole New Way Neurons Communicate — and It Could Rewrite Neuroscience

Orange Neuron

For more than a century, scientists believed they had a solid understanding of how the brain’s billions of neurons talk to each other. Messages flowed through synapses, where chemical messengers leapt microscopic gaps, or through electrical junctions that directly linked cells. But a team of researchers at ÐÓ°ÉÊÓÆµ may have just found an entirely new kind of connection — one that could reshape how we think about brain activity and consciousness itself.
