May 26, 2021 · Neuromodulators trigger second messenger cascades that affect neural circuits in two broad ways: (1) changing the excitability or temporal pattern of neuron activity and (2) altering the strength of synaptic connections between neurons (Marder and Bucher 2001; Dickinson 2006).

Oct 4, 2021 · We focus on the vocal circuit dynamics of Xenopus frogs, and describe complementary examples from diverse vertebrate communication systems.
Jan 21, 2022 · We analyze healthy subjects during rest, exercise, and cognitive tasks and show that synchronous modulation in the micro-architecture of brain rhythms mediates their cross-communications.

Jan 18, 2008 · Communication is ubiquitous in biology, and agreement on terms essential for scientific progress. Yet there is no agreed definition of biological communication. Definitions couched in terms of adaptation are often used, but there is significant variability in exactly which criteria are invoked.

Neuronal communication is therefore envisioned as the means of causing neurons to fire action potentials. A simplistic view is that such communication is the job of neurotransmission. However, neuromodulation plays just as direct a role in communicating such information.
Biological psychologists (sometimes referred to as neuropsy-chologists) attempt to understand how the neural circuits and connections are formed and put together during the development of the brain, allowing the individual to perceive and interact with the world around them.
