neurophysiologist (Montevideo 09
April 1919 – Montevideo 12 August 2005) ACHIEVEMENTS
First demonstrated strychnine spikes in the chick
embryo (1954) Found that counting repetitive light flashes augmented
the visual response (1963-4) With Rius described the slow
response of auditory galvanic stimulation (1965) First to demonstrate that
stimulation of limbic structures provokes dormancy and decreases in
electroencephalogram frequency Developed a technique for diagnosing
normotensive hidrocephaly With P. Handler developed a simple
method for magnetic tape recording of bioelectric potentials (1960) and computational
procedures in neurophysiology |
