چکیده
The name of Theodor Schwann (1810-1882) is familiar to anybody involved in the neurological sciences.

To have his name associated with a particular type of cell seems most appropriate since Schwann was one of the founders of the cell doctrine. This theory revolutionized biology by establishing that the cell is the elementary unit of life, in animals as well as in plants. All the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system rests on this basic concept.
