It means so much to see work that grew from my Fulbright research at the Instituto Cajal shared within this extraordinary archive devoted to Cajal’s life and legacy. English: www.santiagoramonycajal.org/en/2026/08/3...

Collage showing Dawn Hunter’s Cajal-inspired wall covering for the University of South Carolina Brain Health Center. Images include Hunter’s hand-drawn interpretation of Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s microscopic imagery, details of Cajal’s original scientific work, color samples used in developing the design, and views of the completed pale-gray patterned wall covering installed around the USC Brain Health signage.
