Description:

PQ: BIOS 24204 and 24205, and consent of instructor. This course examines the development of the vertebrate nervous system. We trace the development of the brain from the first induction of neural tissue in the embryo to the refinement of synaptic connections late in development by emerging brain activity. We discuss the new synthesis of classical experimental embryology and modern techniques of molecular biology that have led to several recent breakthroughs in our understanding of neural development.
