Salk Institute -- Synaptic Connections (VIDEO)
Caption
Connections in the brain not only expand as needed in response to learning or experiencing new things, but others will shrink as a result. In this 3-D model, over time, the information-sending part of one neuron, which will appear as the horizontal white structure in the video, makes synaptic connections (blue) with the information-receiving part of another neuron, which will appear in green.
