The synapse serves as the basic signaling unit of the nervous system. Information transfer at the synapse, called synaptic transmission underlies every aspect of brain function and is relevant to most neurological diseases, as well as mental illness and drug addiction. The communication between neurons is a highly complex, dynamically regulated process and a comprehensive understanding of such a process requires a multidisciplinary approach and the complementary use of cutting-edge techniques. The Gordon Research Conference on Synaptic Transmission, established in 1998, highly successful and widely attended since then, has developed into the quintessential biannual meeting covering all aspects of synaptic communication.
