The Beautiful Brain: Now through Dec. 31

The drawings of Santiago Ramón y Cajal

Neuroscience pioneer Santiago Ramón y Cajal made transformative discoveries of neural anatomy. "The Beautiful Brain: The Drawings of Santiago Ramón y Cajal," on view at the MIT Museum, includes approximately 80 of his drawings.

These historical works are complemented by an exhibition of contemporary neuroscience visualizations by scientists from MIT (including Susumu Tonegawa and Kay Tye) and around the world. Many of these visualizations were created using technologies pioneered here at MIT. This traveling exhibition, supported by the Picower Institute, is organized by the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum and the Cajal Institute in Madrid, Spain. It opened May 3, 2018 and runs through December 31, 2018.
