Neurons throughout the brain communicate at dedicated sites called synapses using specialized neurotransmitters.
If two neurons communicate repeatedly, a remarkable thing happens: the efficiency of communication between them increases.
It seems that nobody had actually ever counted the number of neurons in the human brain, or in any other brain for that matter.
The central brain only contains about 10% of the neurons, while the two huge optic lobes contain about 30.
Soon, so many neurons are interacting in so many different ways at once that the system becomes chaotic.
Mirror neurons are a type of brain cell that responds equally when we perform an action as when we see someone else perform the same action.
Recently, neuroscientists have found that a subset of mirror neurons allows us to empathize with others' feelings at a deeper level.
These neurons are connected even though they're spatially separated so that activity here instantaneously affects activity over here.
Potter's team takes neurons cultured from rat embryos then grows them on miniature plates of electrodes.
The olfactory epithelium has a layer of olfactory receptor cells, special neurons that sense smells, like the taste buds of your nose.
These are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons in the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.
There is a trade-off between body size and the number of neurons a primate, including us, can sustain.
A rodent brain with 86 billion neurons would weigh 36 kilos.
So like a person blindly rooting about in a bag, she finds the brain, and she injects it with venom into two very specific clusters of neurons.
You might think this is not much, compared to the billions of neurons we have.
Malignant or benign neoplasms of the spinal cord or brain, which affect to varying degrees the motor centers and intermediate neurons.
Some of these are even visible, such as higher density of the grey matter that contains most of your brain's neurons and synapses, and more activity in certain regions when engaging a second language.
That's true in the molecular pandemonium that lets your cells function, the tangled thicket of neurons that produces your thoughts and identity, your network of friends and family, all the way up to the structures and economies of our cities across the planet.
Nerves are in fact bundles of cells called neurons and each of these neurons is highly specialized to carry nerve impulses, their form of electricity, in response to only one kind of stimulus.
Other people have figured out how much energy the human brain and that of other species costs, and now that we knew how many neurons each brain was made of, we could do the math.
