What Is Brain Physiology?
Neurophysiology, referred to as "neurophysiology", is a branch of neuroscience that studies the functional mechanisms of the nervous system (including the peripheral nervous system, spine, and brain). Neurophysiology is also a branch of physiology that focuses specifically on the nervous system.
Neurophysiology
- Since the research object can be discussed at several different levels such as molecules, cells, networks, and systems, the objects of neurophysiology research range from micro to macro, from basic to comprehensive, including the following aspects
- * How the nervous system works at the molecular level, such as the function of molecular structures such as neurotransmitters, receptors and ion channels
- * How the nervous system works at the level of cells, that is, single neurons or receptors, effectors
- * How the nervous system works at the level of a network of multiple neurons; research in this area is a relatively new field, mainly due to the late maturity of research methods
- * The working mechanism of the nervous system at the system level. The most typical ion is the study of neural pathways, such as the division and coordination of various nuclear groups in the auditory pathway and motor pathway.
- Neurophysiology can be divided into sensory, motor, memory and other advanced functions of neurophysiology according to the functional subsystems studied.
- Research methods in neurophysiology differ depending on the level
- * At the molecular level, including genetic methods,
- In addition,
- Due to the unified structure and function of organisms, the study of neurophysiology depends on

Introduction to Neurophysiology
- Neurophysiology is an important part of life sciences. In recent years, while neurology has made great progress, it has also promoted the development of related disciplines. This textbook systematically introduces the leading role of the nervous system, especially the central nervous system, in the integrated regulation of human functional activities, and the interrelationship between endocrine regulation and immune regulation. The study of neurophysiology can improve the basic knowledge and theoretical level of life sciences, especially neuroscience, for undergraduates and graduates, and provide them with the necessary theoretical basis for scientific research. This textbook is based on the lectures used in neurophysiology in the past 10 years, and draws on the new concepts, technologies and methods of neuroscience, especially in the field of neurophysiology. The textbook is written in accordance with the principles of scientificity, advancedness, and practicality. While introducing the basic concepts and basic theories of neurophysiology, special chapters introduce the experimental methods of neurophysiology, the neurophysiological basis of neuropsychiatric diseases, and the etiology and pathogenesis of traditional Chinese medicine. Recognize dialectical methods.
