Researchers have created the world's first Artificial Neuron which can parody the function of Organic Neuron.This could even replace some of the real neurons in our brain. Artificial neurons are made of conductive polymers.Neurons store and transmit information in the brain.These are as small as fingertip and contain no living parts.Miniaturizing the neuron size would enable it's implantation into the human body. This is a potential way to end neurological disorders like spinal cord injuries and Parkinson's disease."Our artificial neuron is made of conductive polymers and it functions like a human neuron" said Agneta Ritcher-Dahlfors a lead researcher from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden.Neurons communicate in our brain through chemical signals.The first thing that Artificial neuron does is it detects chemical signals which are then transmitted electrically from one neuron to another.Then the electrical signals release chemical neu...
