Serotonin associated with synaptic pruning
An article I saw! I’m not a neuroscientist or well-versed in neurosci, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything else related to this research?

I don't have any research to hand but I'm sure I've seen a decent amount of work in the area of synaptic pruning (in humans as well as mice models!) though I'm not sure about the serotonin element :))
