Santiago Ramón y Cajal's concept of neuronal plasticity: the ambiguity lives on

Frank W Stahnisch et al. Trends Neurosci. 2002 Nov.

Abstract

Parallel to his well-known work on the microarchitecture of the CNS, Santiago Ramón y Cajal conducted various investigations of its de- and regenerative capacities. However, Ramón y Cajal's theoretical stance on the issue remains rather ambiguous and can even be assumed to reflect modern views on the potential of structural plasticity in the CNS.
