Strategies for the generation of neuronal diversity in the developing central nervous system.

Abstract excerpt

During development, the neural tube produces a large diversity of neuronal phenotypes from a morphologically homogeneous pool of precursor cells. In recent years, the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which specific types of neurons are generated have been explored, in the hope of discovering...
