Cellular Aspects of Neural Growth and Differentiation, Number 14 (Original PDF from Publisher)

Cellular Aspects of Neural Growth and Differentiation

The proceedings of a specialist symposium on nervous system development that was conducted in November 1969 are presented in this volume. The symposium, which was sponsored by UCLA’s Brain Research Institute, brought together top specialists from several fields to talk about the most recent discoveries in brain growth and differentiation. The event showcased innovative research employing cutting-edge methods like tissue cultures, electron microscopy, and radioactive tracers, with a focus on both morphological and biochemical approaches. Featuring contributions from 38 prominent investigators, the conference offered a platform for the free exchange of ideas between morphologists and biochemists, fostering a collaborative environment. Along with shorter reports and insightful conversations, the collection includes 15 significant lectures on a variety of subjects. This carefully edited collection highlights the significance of interdisciplinary research in deciphering the intricacies of neural maturation while capturing the changing terrain of developmental neuroscience. The Voices Revived program, which honors the University of California Press’s objective to find and develop the best brains and provide them with a voice, audience, and influence, includes this title. Voices Revived uses print-on-demand technology to restore access to high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship, drawing from a backlist that dates back to 1893. The first edition of this book came out in 1971.
