(Explanatoy texts by Isabel Gonzalo Fonrodona) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 605The present edition is the first English translation of a large part of Justo Gonzalo’s original work on Brain Dynamics, closely related to current research topics. Some of the phenomena described were observed much later and others are still unknown. In the parts of Vol. 1 (1945) and 2 (1950) the author characterizes, on the basis of brain injuries from the Spanish Civil War, the central syndrome of the cerebral cortex (multisensory and bilateral disorder) caused by a single unilateral parietoocipital lesion. The observed dynamic effects, such as a gradual loss of functions with decreasing stimulus and their recovery by its intensification or by multisensory or motor facilitation, or by iteration, are explained on a physiological basis. The author describes a careful experimental, quantitative analysis of visual and tactile functions, finding a continuity between simple sensations and higher brain functions. He describes for the first time in great detail phenomena such as inverted or tilted vision, some color disorders, reversal of motion, facilitation, etc. Tactile inversion is also described, generalizing the inverted perception in the central syndrome.
Supplement I is the 1952 publication in which the author reports additional cases, and proposes, for the first time, that the specificity of a human brain function is distributed in gradation across the cortex, resulting in brain gradients and a unitary conception of the cortex. Supplement II deals with the concepts of dynamic similarity and allometric scaling power laws applied to the central syndrome, and shows later illustrations by the author.Depto. de ÓpticaFac. de Ciencias FísicasTRUEpu

The pioneering research of Justo Gonzalo (1910–1986) on brain dynamics
No full textThis paper includes the English translation of the article: Gonzalo J. (1952) "Human brain functions according to new data and physiological bases. An introduction to the studies of Cerebral Dynamics". Published in `Trabajos del Instituto Cajal de Investigaciones Biológicas', XLIV: pp. 95-157. The article in Spanish was also published as Supplement I, in the facsimile edition : Gonzalo J. (2010) "Dinámica Cerebral", Red Temática en Tecnologías de Computación Artificial/Natural (RTNAC) and University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) 2010. ISBN 978-84-9887-458-7, Open Access at http://dspace.usc.es/handle/10347/4341.
The translation of the article is preceded by a preface with references.
The article is closely related to the book `Dinámica Cerebral´ (Brain Dynamics), Volume 1 (1945) (English translation, Open Access at: https://eprints.ucm.es/id/eprint/63730/), Volume 2 (1950) (English translation, Open Access at: https://eprints.ucm.es/id/eprint/72118/)This work is the English translation of an extract from the pioneering research of Justo Gonzalo (1910–1986) on brain dynamics. This is an article published in Spanish in the scientific journal ‘Trabajos del Instituto Cajal de Investigaciones Biológicas’, Vol. XLIV, pp. 95-157 (1952), and entitled Human brain functions according to new data and physiological basis. An introduction to the studies conducted on brain dynamics in its English version. As his author pointed out there, the article is a brief summary of the extensive preceding work ‘Dinámica Cerebral´, Volume 1 (1945) (English translation, Open Access at: https://eprints.ucm.es/id/eprint/63730/), Volume 2 (1950) (English translation, Open Access at: https://eprints.ucm.es/id/eprint/72118/), and also includes original work performed later (from Sec. 7 of the article), as a cortical gradients model.
From the study of patients with unilateral lesion in the parieto-occipital cortex, J. Gonzalo characterized what he called the central syndrome of the cortex, a multisensory, bilateral and symmetric affection presenting dynamic phenomena dependent on the intensity of the stimulus, such as the separation of sensory qualities united in normal perception, noticeable facilitation by motor and cross-modal effects, and tilted or inverted perception, among other disorders. He interpreted these phenomena under a dynamic physiological concept, and from a model based on functional gradients through the cortex and scaling laws of dynamical systems, thus highlighting the functional unity of the cortex and offering a dynamic solution to the traditional theory of brain function localization.
In the 2000s, phenomena (related to multisensory integration, inverted vision) have been reported and models have been proposed in close relation to this research. In particular, brain gradients are a hot topic. Therefore, this research is of relevant current interest.
A preface introduces some aspects of the translated article, its author and his research, including several references. It is followed by the translated article.Depto. de ÓpticaFac. de Ciencias FísicasTRUEunpu
