Surgeon (1869–1939) who pioneered many modern neurosurgical techniques and investigated the functions of the pituitary gland. TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Yale University letterhead, May 9, 1934. Letter to Professor Filippo Bottazzi at the University of Naples. In full: “I am so happy to have the reprint of your paper on muscle contractures and their physiological significance. It is a most important paper in which your priority claims regarding the function of the sarcoplasm are so well established. The whole question of neuromuscular physiology has become so complicated that I personally have not attempted to keep up with it, and consequently I am most glad to have the opportunity of reading this admirable review of your own important work. I am sending you one or two papers in return with my warm regards.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and scattered creases. Bottazzi’s research included the action of the vertebrate heart and the physiology of muscle from which he derived his theory of the sarcoplasma. An excellent piece of correspondence between pioneering neuroscientists, directly discussing their work in the field. RR Auction COA.
