The dynamic synapse : molecular methods in ionotropic receptor biology / edited by Josef T. Kittler, Stephen J. Moss.

Exploring the diverse tools and technologies used to study synaptic processes, The Dynamic Synapse: Molecular Methods in Ionotropic Receptor Biology delineates techniques, methods, and conceptual advances for studying neurotransmitter receptors and other synaptic proteins. It describes a broad range...
