  • Santiago Ramón y Cajal ( 1852 -- 1934) was a Spanish scientist whose meticulous drawings of stained nervous tissue confirmed the "neuron theory" - that is, that brain tissue was made up of individual cells (neurons), as opposed to a network of fibers (the reticular theory). For his invaluable work, Ramón y Cajal was awarded the Nobel Prize, shared with Camillo Golgi.

    *The Father of Modern Neuroscience*
    Santiago Ramón y Cajal was something of a hell-raiser! He was _imprisoned at the age of 11_ for blowing up a neighbor's garden with a homemade cannon. But he reformed, making use of his passion for drawing, and went on to win the *Nobel Prize* in 1906 for his beautiful work documenting golgi-stained nervous tissue - firmly establishing the *Neuron Theory*.

    Waldeyer wasn't the first proposer of "neuron theory". Cell theory was established by Schlieden and Schwann by the end of the 1830's, but no one could generalize this idea to nervous tissue given that nervous cells had processes (now called dendrites) that seemed to form a continuum. The first evidence that nervous tissue was actually formed by individual cells (each with its own set of processes) came from Cajal observations in 1888. Waldeyer (a highly reputed anatomist by then) just helped Cajal by spreading his discoveries. He also coined the word "neuron", but this was in 1891, three years after the actual discovery of the neuron by Cajal.

      If you go to Spain you will find streets and hospitals named after him. People know about him because he got the Nobel prize but not many people are aware of his actual contributions to neuroscience.

    And just an FYI, the photomicrograph of the Golgi Stain came from my laboratory. :). It's a pyramidal cell in human cortex.
