Cellular Neuroscience
Cellular Neuroscience involves the study of the nervous system at the cellular level, focusing on the structure and function of neurons, glial cells, and other cell types that make up the brain and spinal cord. This field explores how individual cells communicate with each other through electrical and chemical signals, as well as the role of cellular processes in brain development, plasticity, and disease. Researchers in Cellular Neuroscience investigate topics such as synaptic transmission, ion channels, neurogenesis, and neurodegeneration to gain a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of brain function and dysfunction.
