What was discovered by Santiago Ramaomy Cajal

Dear Student,

Ramón y Cajal made several major contributions to neuroanatomy. He discovered the axonal growth cone, and demonstrated experimentally that the relationship between nerve cells was not continuous, or a single system as per then extant reticular theory, but rather contiguous; there were gaps between neurons.

He is also known for Fathering modern neuroscience.

Regards,
Daivik Lakshmipathy.
