The brain tissue of animals is made of two types of cells, neuron s also known as nerve cells and neuroglia glial cells , which provide structural and metabolic support for neurons. The human brain is believed to contain roughly equal numbers of each type. The blood vessels that nourish the brain and the membranes that surround it, such as the dura mater and pia mater , contain additional types of cells, but these are not ordinarily considered parts of the brain.

About the Ryosuke Cohen mail art project neurobiological brain cells braincellBrainCell is a mail art project begun by Ryosuke Cohen in June 1985. The project is basically a networked art project where individual artists create their own 30x42cm work of art with stamps, drawings, stickers and so forth. This is sent to Cohen, who prints each cell 150 copies each with a Cyclostyle copier Cyclostyle now out of production . One copy is sent to the author, as well as to the other participants. New editions are published every 8 to 10 days. As of January 2012, there have been 813 issues. Cohen described the origin of the project s name in 1985 Well, I ll title my work BrainCell , because the structure of a brain through a microscope looks like the diagram of the Mail Art network. Thousands of Neurons clung and piled up together are just like the Mail Art network, I believe. BrainCell is an art experiment in the vein of networked mail art , where a network expands from A to B, B to C, C to A and so on. These type of art projects emphasise user collaboration, with different artistic inputs being modified, copied, forwarded and even returned to the originator. This produces a series of cybernetic cells, which can interact in a non linear order. BrainCell has enlisted over 6,000 contributors from 80 nations since 1985. ref Art for Networks, 2002.

Multiple issues unreferenced December 2009 orphan January 2008 Brain healing is the process that occurs after the brain has been damaged. If an individual survives brain damage, the brain has a remarkable ability to adapt. When Cell biology cells in the Human brainbrain are damaged and die, for instance by stroke , there will be no repair or scar formation for those cells. The brain tissue will undergo liquefactive necrosis , and a rim of gliosis will form around the damaged area. Scar formation Apart from a small amount in the blood vessel s, there is no collagen or fibroblast s in the brain. A scar is formed by fibroblasts producing collagen to repair an area, which will later contract. If scars did form in the brain, the contraction would cause even more damage. Formation of a glial membrane Around the edge of necrosis, astrocyte s proliferate. These cells extend processes, and form a delicate rim of gliosis around the margin of damage. The empty space left by brain tissue fills up with cerebrospinal fluid . Functional recovery Brain injury will commonly be accompanied by acute swelling, which impairs function in brain tissue that remains alive. Resolution of swelling is an important factor for the individual s function to improve. The greatest factor in functional recovery after brain injury comes from the brain s ability to learn, called neuroplasticity . After injury, neuroplasticity allows intact areas of the brain to adapt and attempt to compensate for damaged parts of the brain. Although axon s and the peripheral nervous system in the developing brain can regenerate, they cannot in the adult brain. This is partly because of factors produced by cells in the brain that inhibit this regeneration. Dendrite s, however, will develop from intact axons, as part of the neuroplasticity process. After severe brain injury, improvement in function related to neuroplasticity ... rehabilitation . References reflist DEFAULTSORT Brain Healing Category Neurology ... more details

Image Brian s brain.gif frame right A typical chaotic Brian s Brain pattern showing spaceships, rakes and diagonal waves. In this animation, the on cells are white and the dying cells are blue. Brian s Brain is a cellular automaton devised by Brian Silverman, which is very similar to his Seeds cellular automaton Seeds pattern. It consists of an infinite two dimensional grid of cells, but unlike Seeds, each cell may be in one of three states on, dying, or off. Each cell is considered to have eight neighbors Moore neighborhood , as in Seeds and Conway s Game of Life . In each time step, a cell turns on if it was off but had exactly two neighbors that were on, just like the birth rule for Seeds. All cells that were on go into the dying state, which is not counted as an on cell in the neighbor count, and prevents any cell from being born there. Cells that were in the dying state go into the off state. Because of the cellular automaton s name, some websites compare the automaton to a brain and each of its cells to a neuron, which can be in three different states ready off , firing on , and refractory dying . ref cite web url http www.msevans.com automata briansbrain.html title Cellular Automata Brian s Brain last Evans first M.
