Paul Emil Flechsig (29 June 1847 in Zwickau – 22 July 1929 in Leipzig, Germany) was an eminent nineteenth-century German neuroanatomist, psychiatrist and neuropathologist.
Professor Flechsig had an interest in myelinogenesis — the development of the myelin sheaths for nerves.[1] The myelin acts as an insulator to allow the electrical impulses to travel through the nerves.[1]
Flechsig observed that the myelin sheath is not yet formed in newborn babies,[2] so he came to the unfounded conclusion that the newborn cannot feel pain.[3]
