Myelination
Myelination is the process of forming an insulating layer called myelin around neurons. Myelin helps neurons conduct electrical signals faster and more efficiently by providing insulation. This increases the speed at which messages are sent from one part of the brain to another. Myelination is essential for the development and proper functioning of the nervous system and is necessary for a variety of cognitive processes, including learning and memory. Myelin is formed by a type of glial cell and damage to myelin can lead to several neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis.
