Abstract
The functioning of the brain and more broadly the entire field of
neuroscience are globally regarded as frontier areas for investigation.
High school students learn the basic facts about sensory and
motor nerves and the various reflexes of the body. The term ‘kneejerk’
has even entered the English language to describe a quick
reaction unencumbered by thought. In this issue, we bring our
readers the story of how this picture was built up, which is
inseparable from the story of one of the pioneers of the field,
extending well beyond his science.
