Cover Illustration: The cover illustration, by Robert J. Demarest, highlights synapses, synaptic activity, and synaptic-derived
proteins, which are critical elements in enabling the nervous system to perform its role.
Neural information derived from sensory receptors, both outside and within the body, activate the spines of the dendrites. As
a consequence, neural information is communicated, via the dendrites, to the nucleus of the neuron. This activates the genomic
system to release mRNA, which is transported by ribosomes, to the spines. This enables each spine to generate synaptic-specific
proteins for the neuron.
