Program:
The aim of this lecture course is to discuss principles and recent advances in developmental neurobiology. Major topics to be considered include determination, proliferation and differentiation of neural cells; trophic interactions in neural development; gradients and compartments; guidance of axons to targets; and the formation of synapses. These topics willbe considered within the context of the development of both invertebrate and vertebrate neural systems. Prospective students should have a background in neurobiology or molecular biology.
