Purkinje Cells Based on Cajal

Cropped, colorized and silhouetted version of a Cajal drawing of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum of a pigeon, 1899. Santiago Ramón y Cajal (May 1, 1852 - October 17, 1934) was a Spanish pathologist, histologist, neuroscientist, and Nobel laureate. He was skilled at drawing, and hundreds of his illustrations of brain cells are still used for educational purposes today. His early work focused on the pathology of inflammation, the microbiology of cholera, and the structure of epithelial cells and tissues, before turning his attention to the central nervous system. He discovered the axonal growth cone, and provided the definitive evidence for what would later be known as "neuron theory". He provided detailed descriptions of cell types associated with neural structures, and produced excellent depictions of structures and their connectivity.
