The molecular makeup and diversity of synapses throughout the brain change continuously throughout life - published in Science Magazine by Grant Lab from ClinicalBrainScience science.sciencemag.org/content/early/…

The starting point for this work was the following question: Can we tell the neurotransmitter (NT) identity of Drosophila neurons by just looking at EM images of synapses? (below three synapses with each a different NT) 2/6
