Explore the inner workings of a neuron with this vibrant wooden puzzle featuring artwork by scientist David S. Goodsell. The design highlights distinct cellular regions, each divided into three organic cut styles—maze, coral, and matrix. Hidden throughout are eight neuron-shaped whimsy pieces. For an added challenge, try linking these pieces together to form an alternate solution.
