error C2582: 'operator =' function is unavailable in 'EDIN::Neuron'

[EDN Admin]

I have a class called "Neuron" for which I do not have a copy constructor, as I dont want to copy it. However, when I try to compile my code I get this long pile of errors from VS2012:1>crogram files (x86)microsoft visual studio 11.0vcincludexutility(2466): error C2582: operator = function is unavailable in EDIN::Neuron

Strangely, the only part of that error where one of my own files is mentioned is "class_brain.h" line 14, which is just a declaration for the class:class Brain
{
public:
Brain(std::vector<Codon> const&); // construct the brain from a brain codon sequence (ostensibly from a brain gene)

// ...some methods go here...
private:
std::vector<Neuron> neuron_sequence; // Line 14
};
If there is some problem with what I am doing with neuron_sequence, why doesnt it show me where the issue is?
