Neuroglia are categorized by their location in either the Central Nervous System (CNS) or the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). Central Nervous System (CNS)
Neuroglia, often called the "unsung heroes" of the nervous system, are non-neuronal cells that outnumber neurons and provide the essential support framework for the brain and spinal cord. While neurons handle information processing, neuroglia manage everything from immune defense to the physical insulation of nerve fibers. 🧠 Major Types of Neuroglia neuroglia
