2020-02-27

Abstract excerpt

<p>Book section— in 2017, J. Kaas (Ed.), Evolution of Nervous Systems, 2nd Edition, Vol. 3. San Diego: Elsevier Academic Press.Human neurodevelopment is described in terms of its predictable scaling relationships with primate and general mammalian development. The highly predictable, stepwise nature of early brain development, including neurogenesis, axon extension and synaptogenesis, circuit assembly and initial...
