Cortex Historic Drawing by Cajal

Cajal's historic drawing of histologically stained human cortex sections. Surface of the cortex at the top of image. Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852 – 1934) was a Spanish histologist and neuroscientist. He also won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (1906).

Histology Stains

  • Nissl stain - shows the cell bodies of neurons
  • Golgi stain - shows the dendrites and axons of a random subset of neurons. Developed by Camillo Golgi ((1843 – 1926)
