What are the stages involved in brain development and plasticity?
Neuron Generation, Cell Migration & Differentiation, Neural Maturation, Synapse Formation & Pruning, Glial Development, Neurodevelopment in Adolescent Brain, Experience & Neural Connectivity, Plasticity of representational zones
What is the function of neural stem cells in the neural tube?
What is the function of neural stem cells in the neural tube?
Neural stem cells have the potential for self-renewal and give rise to progenitor (precursor) cells, which eventually produce specialized brain cells and spinal cord cells
How does neural death and neurogenesis impact memories?
How does neural death and neurogenesis impact memories?
Neural death results in the loss of memories, while neurogenesis leads to the formation of new memories
