Professor Camillo Negro’s Neuropathological Films

Camillo Golgi (1843?1926)

Camillo Golgi studied the central nervous system [2] during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Italy, and he developed a staining technique to visualize brain cells. Called the black reaction, Golgi's staining technique enabled him to see the cellular structure of brain cells, called neurons, with much greater precision. Golgi also used the black reaction to identify structure...

Camillo Golgi's Black Reaction for Staining Neurons

In 1873 Italy, Camillo Golgi created the black reaction technique, which enabled scientists to stain and view the structure of neurons, the specialized cells that compose the nervous system. During the nineteenth century, scientists were studying cells and proposed cell theory, which describes the basic characteristics of cells as fundamental units of life. However, cell theory struggled to exp...

Abstract. In this note we revisit Almgren’s theory of Q-valued functions, that are functions taking values in the space AQ(R) of unorderedQ-tuples of points in R. In particular: • we give shorter versions of Almgren’s proofs of the existence of Dir-minimizing Qvalued functions, of their Hölder regularity and of the dimension estimate of their singular set; • we propose an alternative intrinsic ...
