As long as our brain is a mystery, the universe, the reflection of the structure of the brain will also be a mystery.
- Santiago Ramón y Cajal
This blog features Dawn Hunter’s original, creative project about the life of Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Since 2014, she has immersed Cajal in "neuron narratives," connecting him to seminal influences from his youth that led to his perception of the neuron as an individual unit, like his literary hero, Don Quixote. References to the verbal and visual content of her work should include appropriate citations. Dawn is the 2017 Fulbright Senior Research Scholar to the Cajal Institute, Madrid, Spain.
