Beyond Neurotransmission |
General description
This book provides the foundations for understanding the cellular and molecular basis for neuromodulatory effects. It illustrates key examples of the roles played by neuromodulation in sensory processing, neuromuscular transmission, generation of motor behaviors, and learning. The book also underscores the importance of information processing by the nervous system in future studies. By spanning the levels of analysis from sub-cellular mechanisms through cellular properties and neuronal systems to behavior, the book provides a framework for understanding this field.
