Communication between neurons. Benoit Zuber. Communication between neurons, or nerve cells, is the cellular basis for thinking, decision making, and control of muscular movements.Neurons are cells with a particular shape: they possess two types of long ramification, called the axon and the dendrites.The axon of one neuron is in contact with the dendrites of other neurons. These contacts are termed synapses.eurons are cells with a particular shape: they possess two types of long ramification, called the axon and the dendrites.

Neurons communicate at structures called synapses in a process called synaptic transmission. The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse). Although the flow of information around the brain is achieved by electrical activity, communication between neurons is a chemical process.
