I was implanting electrodes in white rat brains 60 years ago. Crude but it 
didn't seem to bother the rats much. The tricky part was anesthetizing the 
rat. Drop rat into a 2 quart pickle jar with a wad of ether soaked cotton, 
monitoring life signs. Sometimes a little CPR was necessary.

If you did it right the rat would press a pedal to get zapped and become 
conditioned. Do it wrong and the rat would have a seizure. 

There was also a cat in the lab who had been through some sort of 
experiment. She was friendly but was mortally afraid of the rats.

A synth-neuron would be challenging. It's not a point connection. The 
dendrites branch out and pass signals through an electrochemical process 
involving manipulating ion flows across the cellular membranes.  

The whole AI neural network thing attempts to simulate the process, 
weighting the interconnections. They've been chipping away at the problem 
on and off for over 80 years. I don't expect a solution any time soon.
