Camillo Golgi and Ramon Y Cajal who Peeped into the Mysterious World of Nervous System.

*Prof of Medicine, Pravara Rural Medical College, Loni 413736, Maharashtra; **Prof of Endocrinology, Army Hospital (R&R), New Delhi; ***CDC, Atlanta, USA C Golgi and Ramon Y Cajal shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1906 for their studies on the structure of nervous system. Strangely they met only at Stockholm. Golgi gave his Nobel lecture first in which he described his reticular theory of neuronal network. This was contradicted by Cajal in his Nobel lecture, who advocated the cellular basis of structure of nervous system. Sharing the same passion and dedication to science, both had different personalities. Cajal was impetuous and burning with enthusiasm; Golgi was a cooler and academic.
