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

  • Neuroectoderm
  • Neural plate
    • Neural fold

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:

    “... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
