AbstractThe course covers the development of the nervous system (NS) with a focus on neurogenesis and migration, axon growth, synapse formation, mol. & cell. mechanisms, and diseases of the developing NS.
ObjectiveThe aim is to give a deepened insight on the normal development, of the nervous system based on molecular, cellular and biochemical approaches.
ContentThe main focus is on the development of the NS: Early development of the NS, cellular processes, nerve fiber growth, building of synapses and neuronal networks.
