Electrical synapses between mushroom body neurons are critical for consolidated memory retrieval in Drosophila.
Electrical synapses between neurons, also known as gap junctions, are direct cell membrane channels between adjacent neurons. Gap junctions play a role in the synchronization of neuronal network activity; however, their involvement in cognition has not been well characterized. Three-hour olfactory a...
