Interestingly, #Virchow also introduced the concept of #neuroglia as a distinct #cellular component of the #NervousSystem. This was a crucial step in understanding the cellular composition of the nervous system and laid the groundwork for later #neuroscience research on glial cells.

I bought a copy of this influential book and share insights from it in my latest blog post:

#Virchow's maxim "Politics is nothing but medicine at a larger scale" is compelling & inspiring to many—but we've good reasons to Q its application eg in activism, housing, #homelessness. Eg huge issues esp w/US medicine & pharma; critiques in Mackenbach, #IvanIllich, R. Bourne:
