CELEBRATING ANDREW HUXLEY
British physiologist and biophysicist, Andrew Huxley won the 1963 Nobel Prize in Medicine for the Hodgkin-Huxley model that describes how nerve impulses are generated and propagated along the membrane of a neuron. This model laid the foundation of our understanding of electrical signalling in neurons and remained a fundamental concept in neuroscience and computational biology. |
