Ramon y Cajal, Neuroscience through Art

This article is a brief report of the result offered by a workshop accomplish in July 2021. Throughout it, we pinpoint the importance of Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934), while preading his scientific work to a wider audience. With watercolours, participants discover the out-of-the-way world of the nervous system. The purpose of this proposal is to make science accesible for everyone regardless of their grounding or origin. Anyone can enjoy it and feed their curiosity. Moreover, this knowledge can be used with an artistic aim. For this reason, the article elaborates the proposal as it took place. In order to figure it out, I have developed a brief theoretical introduction about the impossibility of disassociating art and science. Furthermore, I place my exerience in the context of other similar ones. Although they are not equal, the aim is the same.
