Neuron

Neuron is an interactive Java-based educational tool that brings neurobiology to life. It allows students and educators to simulate the electrical activity of a neuron in real-time. Visualize the dynamic flow of sodium, potassium, and other ions across the neural membrane during action potentials and resting states. Adjust key parameters like membrane permeability and ion concentration to see immediate effects on signal generation and propagation. This hands-on simulation provides a clear, visual understanding of fundamental concepts that are often abstract in textbooks, making it an ideal resource for high school, undergraduate, and self-directed learners exploring the basics of neuroscience and cellular physiology.
