Introduction
The human brain, a prodigious marvel of nature, stands as an enigma that has captivated scientists,
philosophers, and thinkers for millennia. It is an intricate organ that orchestrates the symphony
of human life, governing our thoughts, emotions, memories, and actions [1]. From the time of
ancient civilizations to the frontiers of modern neuroscience, the mysteries of the human brain's
intrigued complexity have been a subject of relentless exploration and fascination [2]. The brain
is a network of billions of neurons connected in a perplexing web of communication, safely
nestled beneath the fortifying walls of the skull [3]. Synapses are small connections between
these neurons that allow electrical and chemical information to pass across the extensive brain
network [4]. The brain is a network of billions of neurons connected in a perplexing web of
