Neuropeptides are often viewed as slow modulators, yet our recent work shows they can act as primary transmitters in shaping behavior. Using new imaging and silencing tools, we reveal how firing patterns drive a switch between glutamate and neuropeptide transmissions to encode opposing emotional states, adding a new layer of flexibility to neuronal coding.
