Postsynaptic spines are small (0.5µm), highdensitypacking (109synapses, 4.1 km of axon, 500 m of dendrite per 1 mm3), dozens of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, dozens of receptor subtypes
Flexor and extensormuscles, monosynapticcircuitmotif, sensory/motorsignaling: integration for behavior, glutamate from 1a sensory neuron released on alphamotorneuron & activatesGABA in inhibitoryinterneuron
EPSP from artificially passing current in motor neuron drives a spike, IPSP from interneuron in the motor neuron moves Vm away from the threshold, co-occurrence of EPSP and IPSP fails to reach threshold
