Santiago Ramon y Cajal. Portrait of Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934),Spanish histologist. Ramon y Cajal was apprenticed to a barber and a shoemaker before taking up medicine. From 1885 he became interested in the microscopic structure of the brain. By using and improving Camillo Golgi's recently-invented staining methods,Ramon y Cayal studied the brain,spinal cord and retina. He showed the great complexity of the system and argued that the cells in the nervous system were discrete,having no physical contin- uity between them. He also studied the degenera- tion and regeneration of nerves. In 1906 he shared the Nobel Prize for medicine with Golgi | |
