Outline of Neuroscience - Neural Development

Neural Development

Neural development comprises the processes that generate, shape, and reshape the nervous system, from the earliest stages of embryogenesis to the final years of life.

  • Neural plasticity
  • Neurogenesis
  • Neuroregeneration

  • Notochord
  • Neuroectoderm
  • Neural plate
    • Neural fold

  • Alar plate
    • sensory
  • Basal plate
    • motor
  • Glioblast
  • Neuroblast

Eye development
  • Neural tube: Optic vesicle
  • Optic stalk
  • Optic cup
  • Surface ectoderm: Lens placode
Auditory development
  • Otic placode
    • Otic pit
    • Otic vesicle
note: NS is mostly ectoderm, but mesoderm is precursor for epineurium, perineurium, and endoneurium

Famous quotes containing the word development:

    “I’ve always been impressed by the different paths babies take in their physical development on the way to walking. It’s rare to see a behavior that starts out with such wide natural variation, yet becomes so uniform after only a few months.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
