"Longet was one of a group of nineteenth-century French experimental physiologists who made important new discoveries concerning the nature of the nervous system. It was Longet who first demonstrated that motor impulses were transmitted in the anterior section of the spinal cord while sensory messages were confined to the posterior portion."
