Molecular clusters on glial cells show they are more than our brain's 'glue'

Researchers report that a single glial cell uses different molecules to communicate with different neurons. Careful clustering of these molecules ensures that the glial cell can conduct a distinct 'conversation' with each neuron. Through these molecular facilitators, glia can influence how neurons respond to environmental cues like temperature and smell.
