Development of the thalamus: From early patterning to regulation of cortical functions

This article will give an overview of the organization of the embryonic thalamus and how progenitor cells in the thalamus generate neurons that are organized into discrete nuclei. I will then discuss how thalamic development is orchestrated with the development of the cerebral cortex and other brain regions.This article is categorized under: Nervous System Development> Vertebrates: Regional Development Nervous System Development> Vertebrates: General Principles
