In 1857, in the village of Sarali, Yelabuga district, a great scientist, a famous psychiatrist, neurologist, psychologist, organizer of the Psychoneurological Institute and the Institute of the Human Brain Vladimir Mikhailovich Bekhterev was born. In 1885, V.M. Bekhterev began work at Kazan University, where he created the first laboratory of experimental psychology in Russia (the second in the world). During this period he enriched science with discoveries in the field of anatomy and physiology of the brain and spinal cord. His work was highly appreciated by scientists: “Only two people know the anatomy of the brain perfectly: God and Bekhterev.” In the world’s only museum of county medicine named after Bekhterov in Yelabuga, unique exhibits are exhibited that are worth seeing.
