Nerve synapse, artwork C017 / 3426
Nerve synapse. Computer artwork of of a junction, or synapse, between two nerve cells (neurons). As the electrical signal reaches the presynaptic end of a neuron it triggers the release of neurotransmitters (yellow) across the gap, or synaptic cleft, between the two cells. The neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane, changing the membranes excitability and triggering an electrical impulse

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Nerve Synapse" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the intricate world of our brain's communication system. Created by the talented artist Tim Vernon, this computer-generated illustration showcases the fascinating process that occurs at a junction between two nerve cells. In this vibrant depiction, we witness an electrical signal reaching the presynaptic end of a neuron, triggering the release of neurotransmitters across the synaptic cleft. The neurotransmitters, represented in striking yellow hues, bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane. This interaction alters the membrane's excitability and sets off an electrical impulse—an essential mechanism for information transmission within our central nervous system. The attention to detail in this artwork is awe-inspiring as it captures both the biological complexity and beauty of neural connections. It serves as a visual reminder of how our brains function harmoniously through countless synapses and neurons firing together. As we delve deeper into understanding neurology and its significance in maintaining healthy bodily functions, artworks like these become invaluable tools for scientific education and appreciation. Tim Vernon's masterpiece not only highlights his artistic prowess but also bridges art with science seamlessly. Let this print serve as an inspiring reminder of nature's incredible design—a testament to human curiosity and exploration—showcasing just how interconnected our bodies truly are at every level.
