# Neuronal Class
**Collection:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]]
**Type:** Neurobiological classification concept
**Primary source:** [[articles/2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces|2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces]]
## Definition
A **neuronal class** groups neurons by shared anatomical, developmental, molecular, physiological, or functional properties at a declared level of a classification hierarchy.
## Relationships
- The [[wiki/Cambridge Drosophila Connectomics Group|Cambridge Drosophila Connectomics Group]] supplied hierarchical FlyWire annotations of classes, [[wiki/Cell Type|cell types]], and [[wiki/Hemilineage|hemilineages]].
- A class is broader than an individual neuron and may be defined differently across datasets.

#### Outgoing typed edges
- **HR-0838 — `wiki_links_to` → [[wiki/Cell Type|Cell Type]]** — **EXISTING WIKI EDGE**; evidence `WIKI_ARCHIVE`. Direct internal link currently present in `Neuronal Class.md`.
#### Epistemic boundary
Verified external relationships, inherited wiki links, corpus architecture, technical precedents, cross-thread comparisons, analytic convergence, and graph candidates remain distinct. “Related” means only the typed relationship shown. A graph candidate is retained as **CANDIDATE — DO NOT PROMOTE**; similarity, shared personnel, compatibility, adjacent infrastructure, or common requirements do not establish ownership, funding, transfer, operational integration, or shared intent. Software checkpointing, adapters, world models, and confidential computing are engineering precedents or analogues, not demonstrations of human phenomenal or numerical continuity.
