Junction between two nerve cells (7)

I believe the answer is:

synapse

(Other definitions for synapse that I've seen before include "Part of the nervous system" , "It links cells" , "Connection between nerve cells" , "Nerve cell connector" , "Gap between nerve cells across which signals pass" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
