Neural Pathway

Networks of neurons in the brain that transmit signals from one part to another, enabling communication between different brain areas or between the brain and the rest of the body.

Sir Charles Sherrington

An English neuroscientist known for his pioneering research on reflexes, synaptic transmission, and the integration of the nervous system, awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1932.

Action Potential

A temporary shift in the electrical charge across a cell membrane, leading to the transmission of nerve impulses along neurons.

Chemical Message

Signals transmitted through the release of chemical substances (neurotransmitters, hormones, etc.) from one part of the body to another to convey messages or trigger responses.
