What is "neurophysiology"?
Neurophysiology is the study of how the nervous system functions. Neurophysiologists, specialists in this field, investigate how nerve cells, known as neurons, communicate with each other and how electrical signals travel through the nervous system. They examine the processes underlying sensory awareness, movement, memory, and other mental functions. Neurophysiology plays a crucial role in understanding the normal functioning of the nervous system as well as in diagnosing and treating neurological disorders such as epilepsy, stroke, and Parkinson's disease.
