Santiago Ramón y Cajal: Biography of a Great Thinker | History of Science
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 чер 2014
- 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*.

What a wonderful summary of Santiago Ramón y Cajal's amazing life, congratulations ! and thanks for this Video !!!
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.
Great video....thank you Socratica and Liliana😊
He was a bodybuilder as well, check it out, Incredible man.
Love your concise biography
Genius man!i love very much his different side
Thanks for this video! you helped me a lot, love from Peru!
Great explanation, Thank You
very helpful thank you
Thank you so much.
Lovely presentation
thank you very much your information knowlege about of santiago Ramon y Cajal
very interesting video;)
Poderia postar estes vídeos no socrática português com legenda ?!
REALY NICE
And just an FYI, the photomicrograph of the Golgi Stain came from my laboratory. :). It's a pyramidal cell in human cortex.
Wonderful to see you here! We've listed your lab as the contributor of the photo in the description of the video - let us know if you'd like us to link to anything else. Cheers from all of us at Socratica!
Jacques Monod!
I wonder how many people know about this genius.
Allmedical students,some biology students(depending on Level of education) know his name
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_cell_of_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.
Not enough🤔

what teh FIBRES
Does sharing mean he had to split the krona
It's ok to be a little crazy.
she's pretty
Like si veniste por clases online
He was also a freemason.

You are soo beautiful
Helpful, but drop the fake accent in the beginning.
Are you kidding? www.imdb.com/name/nm1668775/ She speaks 5 languages and this is her accent. Try not to be so judgmental.
@@trainingporpoises. I'm impressed with how well she pronounces French and Spanish words.
Sorry but: SANTIAGO RAMON Y CAJAL WAS BORN IN PETILLA DE ARAGON, A VILLAGE IN ARAGON not in Navarra.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petilla_de_Arag%C3%B3n
Its a Navaran enclave in Aragon. As such its part of Navarra.
callate!!!!
