<p dir="ltr">Neuroscience and Neurophysiology are closely related fields within the broader discipline of neuroscience, but they focus on different aspects of the nervous system.</p><p dir="ltr">Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary field that encompasses the study of the nervous system, including its structure, function, development, and diseases.&nbsp;</p><p dir="ltr">Neurophysiology, on the other hand, is a subfield of neuroscience that specifically focuses on the electrical and chemical processes that govern the function of neurons and neural circuits. It explores how neurons generate and transmit electrical signals, how synaptic transmission occurs between neurons, and how these processes contribute to various physiological functions such as sensory perception, motor control, and cognition.</p>
