The 'Black Reaction'
The black reaction was the most important breakthrough for neurocytology and neuroanatomy and it was created by Golgi and it is a easy way to demonstrate the structure of the interstitial stroma of cerebral cortex -
Wilhelm His
He brought out the idea the the nerve cell body and its prolongations form an independent unit -
