Examples are his studies on denervation, stretch receptors, efferent control, inhibition, GABA and peptides as transmitters, integration in the retina, glial cells, and the analysis of synaptic transmission. A feature of his work is the way in which the right problem was tackled using the right preparation. In a career that spanned 40 years, Stephen Kuffler made experiments on fundamental problems and laid paths for future research to follow. This book is dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague, Steve Kuffler. Includes bibliographical references and index.
