neuronelméleten
Neuronelméleten refers to the fundamental concept in neuroscience that the nervous system is composed of discrete cellular units called neurons. This theory, often contrasted with earlier reticular theories, posits that neurons are individual cells that transmit electrochemical signals. Santiago Ramón y Cajal is widely credited as a principal proponent of the neuron doctrine, building upon the work of others like Camillo Golgi, whose silver staining technique was crucial for visualizing individual neurons.
The neuron doctrine asserts that neurons are the basic structural and functional units of the nervous system.
The neuronelméleten revolutionized neuroscience by providing a clear framework for studying neural circuits and brain activity.
