1  Neurons and glial cells

1. Throughout the brain and spinal cord we all have nerve cells called ‘neurons’, which transmit ‘messages’ (electrical and chemical signals).
2. Glial cells are cells that surround our neurons.
3. They support and protect the neurons, provide the neurons with oxygen and nutrients, and remove dead cells. Glial cells are much smaller than neurons and we have many more glial cells than neurons.
4. There are different types of glial cells, each of which plays a different role in supporting the neurons. The main types are astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and ependymal cells.

2  What is the possibility of AI controlling Neurons and glial cells?

While AI currently can't directly control neurons and glial cells, research explores using AI to understand and potentially manipulate their interactions, with applications in mapping the brain, modeling neurodegenerative diseases, and developing therapies.
