What is it about?
The neuron’s activity is guided on the scale of “damage-protection” and it behaves as an object possessing minimum awareness. Motivation arises when neurons in specific brain areas leave the state of homeostatic equilibrium and are injured. The approach of death increases cellular efforts to operate. Thus, homeostasis may evidently produce both maintenance of life and will.

Why is it important?
The brain work should be modeled as a collective of decision-making neurons, and not as a neural network.
Perspectives
