Neuroembryology
摘要
The brain undergoes a series of incredible changes in utero as it changes from a flat plate into a tube and then evolves into the convoluted cerebral hemisphere and cerebellum. These changes are a consequence of cell migrations within the developing nervous system. This complex evolution results in several structures that start very close together (particularly the fornix, stria terminalis, corpus callosum, and anterior commissure) moving quite a distance apart.
