 XNBC : A workastation to simulate biological neural networks
These neurons can pertain to one or several clusters, and clusters can span several nuclei (since they are only a way to describe the neuron behavior, not the neuron location).
A neuron can share some basic properties with other neurons (we say that they pertain to the same cluster -see below-), but has its own life, different from the other neurons.
The concept of cluster has proven to be a very powerful concept to describe large sets of neurons and to group them.

 Hartmann Neuron
For all its unconventional terminology, it's still possible to treat the Neuron's dual Resynators as oscillators which allow you to manipulate a sound using parameters similar in philosophy to those found on physical modelling synths such as the Korg Z1.
I was unable to test the Neuron in a true 5.1 context, because my review studio is as yet stereo, but by monitoring each of the channel pairs in turn, it seemed that everything was functioning correctly.
One of these is no less modestly described in the Neuron's promotional literature as a sonic event which "changes in size, growing to a towering spire of sound whose body — originally wood — gradually metallises.

 The Neuron
Yet it is quite conceivable that a drug could be developed that inhibited serotonin re-uptake in platelets, but had no effect at all on mood or any other aspect of psychology.
This is one in the series of the ETFRC's "backward chaining" learning essays, intended to serve only as a rapid introduction to a particular subject, so that lack of familiarity with the subject doesn't block one from learning something else.
Many years of study could be spent on this subject alone; here, we're only trying to give you an idea of the sorts of things that happen.

Using a cell-staining substance called silver salts, he was able to observe and draw the intricate patterns of neurons in the brain and spinal cord.
Through his research, he concluded that synapses provide the means for communication between nerve cells.

In vertebrates, they are found in the brain, the spinal cord and in the nerves and ganglia of the peripheral nervous system, and their primary role is to process and transmit neural information.
This research has shown that neurogenesis is environment-dependent rather than age-related and is halted by survival-type stress factors.
Recent experimental results have suggested that glial cells play a vital role in information processing among neurons, indicating that neurons may not be the sole information processing cells in the nervous system.

 Neurology-Info.net: Information on the nervous system, diseases and disorders, treatments
The cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, watery and colorless secretion of the choroid plexus within the ventricles that acts as a shock absorber for the brain and spinal cord.
These include mechanoreceptors sensing things like pressure or stretch, thermoreceptors, photoreceptors in the retina, and chemoreceptors such as the taste bud or those for olfaction.
They are involved in the control of complex motor control, information processing and unconscious gross intentional movements.

 A Brief Introduction to the Brain:Neuron1
Any cerebral process, ranging from the so called higher functions (learning, imaginery, language) to the simplest spinal reflex has the same cellular substrate: the neuron.
The brain analyzes information coming from the peripheral receptors and creates perceptions some of which are stored in memory.
Morphologically, on the basis of the number of processes arising from the cell body neurons are classified into three groups: unipolar, bipolar and multipolar neurons.

 Psych 150 - The Neuron
Neurons are highly specialized cells that transmit impulses within animals to cause a change in a target cell such as a muscle effector cell or glandular cell.
This sudden change in polarity from the influx of positive ions triggers an action potential that moves like a wave down the axon triggering another nerve, muscle cell, etc.
One long extension of the soma, called the axon, is the primary conduit through which the neuron transmits impulses to neurons downstream in the signal chain.
