About the Typeface
Visual Development
Spades - Pseudo-unipolar Neurons
Sensory neurons with cell bodies mostly located in our spinal area.
Hearts - Bipolar Neurons
Bipolar neurons are sensory neurons which transmits information related to sight, smell, or hearing.
Clubs - Multipolar Neurons
Neurons typically found in our brains. Roughly saying, clusters of multipolar neurons process
infomation inside our brain.
Diamonds - Glial Cells
Glial cells are non-neuronal cells that support and protect neurons in the nervous system. Without them, neurons fails to transduct any signals, and won’t retain any structural integrity.
Jokers - Neural Progenitor Cells
Neural progenitor cells are the precursor of all neurons and glial cells. They are responsible for the development of the brain and spinal cord, and play a role in learning and memory in adults
