  1. 1. Let Us Put Our Brains in the Spotlight – Literally!

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Elsa Karjalainen; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Neurons are the working force in each vertebrate’s nervous system. These small cells have the important task of transferring information in the form of electrical charges called action potentials. Neurons make it possible for us to sense touch, process our environment, and store memory. READ MORE
