Definitions:

Disease-producing

Capable of causing or generating a disease; pathogenic.

Depolarization

Depolarization is a change in the electrical charge of a neuron's membrane, leading to a less negative inner membrane potential and often initiating an action potential, which enables the transmission of neural signals.

Electrical Charge

A physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field.

Neural Networking

A computational approach inspired by the network of neurons in the brain, used to approximate complex functions and patterns.
