Neural Sparks: Action Potentials, GABA, and the Brain's Balance

Dive into how neurons generate action potentials, how ions and pumps set the resting potential, and how neurotransmitters—especially GABA—shape the brain's excitatory/inhibitory balance. We'll trace the chain from the electrical impulse to chemical handoffs across synapses, and explore implications for memory, anxiety, epilepsy, and how drugs can tune the brakes or the gas.
