Answer

Ramón y Cajal's studies and illustrations were important contributions to modern neuroscience. He used a technique called Golgi staining to make visible the microscopic details of neurons, and he was able to see that neurons are not continuous with each other, but instead have gaps between them. This discovery led to the understanding that neurons communicate with each other through electrical signals that pass through these gaps.
