Breve storia della neurobiologia

  • Chapter
Introduzione alla neurobiologia

Riassunto

La chiave delle neuroscienze moderne risiede nel principio che sia le funzioni nervose semplici, come quella di un verme che si muove verso una fonte di cibo, sia quelle complesse, quali l’elaborazione articolata del pensiero e dell’ideazione nei primati superiori (l’uomo), siano la conseguenza dell’attività di specifici componenti molecolari all’interno delle unità cellulari del sistema nervoso, le cellule nervose o neuroni e delle loro interazioni. La complessità della risposta deriva dalla complessità dell’integrazione tra i neuroni e i sistemi neuronali all’interno del SN.
