Santiago Ramón y Cajal

New Set of Original Drawings Now on Exhibition in NIH’s Porter Neuroscience Center

Newly arrived is the latest set of seven neuroanatomy drawings by Santiago Ramon y Cajal on rotation in Building 35. The drawings date back to the turn of the last century when Santiago Ramón y Cajal shared the Nobel Prize (1906) with Camillo Golgi for their work on the structure of the nervous system. We thank our partners at the Cajal Institute in Madrid, Spain for making this exhibit possible. You can see the original drawings, or touch 3-D prints of enlarged drawing details, for the next year.
