Neural coding is a way for the brain to make sense of the things we see, hear, feel, and do. It works by connecting neurons in our brain together. Neurons are special cells in the brain that send messages to each other. In neural coding, neurons send each other messages with electrical signals. The electrical signals are then translated into messages that our brain can understand such as sights, sounds, feelings and more. Neural coding helps us to understand the world around us and make decisions.
