Thomas Reese (NIH/MBL): Visualizing Synaptic Signaling

www.ibiology.org/neuroscience/synaptic-vesicles/

Tom Reese describes a decade of experiments with John Heuser which led to their theory of synaptic vesicle recycling and and allowed them to directly visualize synaptic vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane. The result was a triumph of technical wizardry and scientific insight.
