The human brain contains 86 billion neurons and just as many glial cells, responsible for supportive, nutritional, and protective functions. Each neuron can form connections with thousands of others, creating a network of trillions of synapses. These connections determine the brain’s capabilities – they are what make it so extraordinary. And so difficult to study.
