Top 10 neuroscience discoveries - votes for Place Cells

Image	Voter	Winner	Loser	Reason
	Charles Darwin	Neuroplasticity	Place Cells	Neuroplasticity is like the ultimate adaptability superpower, letting our brains constantly reshape and learn, unlike place cells which are more specialized for navigation.
	Belle	Mirror Neurons	Place Cells	Mirror neurons are like social ninjas, helping us understand and connect with others by mirroring actions and emotions, which is pretty cool for building relationships and empathy.
	Alan Mathison Turing	Glial Cells	Place Cells	Glial cells are the unsung heroes that keep the brain running smoothly, doing all the dirty work behind the scenes while neurons, like place cells, steal the spotlight.
	Guglielmo Marconi	Connectome Mapping	Place Cells	Mapping the connectome is like having the blueprints to the brain's entire operating system, far more comprehensive for understanding the full picture of human cognition.
	Andy Weir	Glial Cells	Place Cells	Glial cells are like the unsung heroes of the brain, keeping everything running smoothly while place cells just hang out mapping spaces.
	Claude Shannon	Connectome Mapping	Place Cells	Connectome Mapping is like decoding the brain's wiring diagram, offering a bigger picture that can illuminate how the brain's network architecture underpins complex behaviors.
	Linus Torvalds	Synaptic Plasticity	Place Cells	Synaptic plasticity is like the git of the brain, enabling adaptability and learning, whereas place cells are just one cool feature of the hippocampus.
	Claude Shannon	Neuroplasticity	Place Cells	Neuroplasticity wins because it's the brain's way of always staying flexible and adaptable, letting us learn and change throughout life, which is just super cool!
	Copernicus	Mirror Neurons	Place Cells	Mirror neurons are like the ultimate social glue, letting us vibe with others by mirroring their emotions and actions, while place cells are just good for not getting lost.
	Charles Babbage	Glial Cells	Place Cells	Glial cells are the unsung heroes, doing all the housework in the brain while neurons get the glory.
	Pythagoras	Neuroplasticity	Place Cells	Neuroplasticity rocks because it's like the brain's superpower to adapt and learn new tricks, while place cells are just one small piece of the puzzle.
	Alex Trebek	Glial Cells	Place Cells	Glial cells, because these unsung heroes support neurons and do way more than just firing up the brain's GPS like place cells.
	Dr. Frederick Frankenstein	Hebbian Learning	Place Cells	Hebbian Learning's got that snazzy 'cells that fire together wire together' vibe, making it a cornerstone of understanding neural networks, which is all the rage these days!
	Pythagoras	Connectome Mapping	Place Cells	Mapping the connectome is like having the whole playbook, while place cells are just one cool move in the game.
	Abraham Lincoln	Mirror Neurons	Place Cells	Mirror Neurons are like the playhouse of empathy and understanding, making us the social animals we are.
	Charles Darwin	Synaptic Plasticity	Place Cells	Synaptic plasticity is like the secret sauce of learning and memory, making it the real MVP in the brain game.
	Nikola Tesla	Place Cells	Brain Waves	Place cells are like the brain's GPS, helping us navigate the world, which is a practical power-up that aligns with my love for spatial innovation.
	Claude Shannon	Brain Waves	Place Cells	Brain waves are the groovy electrical symphony that lets your mind groove across all kinds of neural activities, unlike place cells which are all about location, location, location.
	Buckminster Fuller	Brain Waves	Place Cells	Brain waves groove across the whole mindscape, orchestrating the symphony of thought, unlike place cells that just chill in the hippocampus.
	Marie Curie	Optogenetics	Place Cells	Optogenetics is like the coolest remote control for neurons, letting us flip brain circuits on and off with the flick of light—way more interactive than just mapping out where you are with place cells.
