Cajal's great contribution to the history of science is undoubtedly the postulate of neuron theory. Santiago Ramón y Cajal :: Biographical https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/1906/cajal/biographical/ Santiago Ramón y Cajal was born on May 1, 1852, at Petilla de Aragón, Spain. As a boy he was apprenticed first to a barber and then to a cobbler. He himself wished to be an artist – his gift for draughtsmanship is evident in his published works. How the human body uses electricity https://www.graduate.umaryland.edu/gsa/gazette/February-2016/How-the-human-body-uses-electricity/ Electricity is everywhere, even in the human body. Our cells are specialized to conduct electrical currents. Electricity is required for the nervous system to send signals throughout the body and to the brain, making it possible for us to move, think and feel. Degrees of Freedom https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/11/26/how-to-control-a-machine-with-your-brain For eighteen years, Jan Scheuermann has been paralyzed from the neck down. She is six feet tall, and she spends all day and all night in a sophisticated, battery-powered wheelchair that cradles her—half sitting, half reclining—from head to toe. In effect, the chair has become an extension of her body. To navigate the world in it, Scheuermann manipulates a cork-tipped joystick with her chin. The Action Potential by C. George Boeree http://webspace.ship.edu/cgboer/actionpot.html The movement of a signal through the neuron and its axon is all about ions. An ion is a charged particle, such as Na+, the sodium ion. It has a positive charge, because it is missing one electron. Other ions, of course, are negatively charged. Music by Epidemic Sound: http://epidemicsound.com/creator Love you, #nerdfam!
