Abstract
Chemical synapses transmit information via the release of neurotransmitter-filled vesicles from the presynaptic terminal.

enwrap synapses can modulate the probabilities of vesicle release through bidirectional signaling and hence regulate
synaptic transmission. For low-fidelity hippocampal synapses, which typically have only one or two active zones, the
