Caption:Observations of the small protrusions that line the dendrites of neurons, called spines, provided a critical readout of the function of the cells' NMDA receptors in the new study, as well as in a precursor to the research back in 2020. This is a two-photon microscope image, which is approaching the limits of optical imaging (hence its blurriness). Credits:Image: Stepanie Barnes/MIT Bear Lab
