《神經(jīng)發(fā)育》是一份開放獲取、同行評議的期刊，研究涉及分子、細(xì)胞、生理或行為方法的各個(gè)方面的研究手稿，為神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的形成機(jī)制以及成人神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的更新和再生提供了新的見解。神經(jīng)發(fā)展的目的是發(fā)現(xiàn)神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)如何產(chǎn)生和獲得感知世界和控制自適應(yīng)運(yùn)動(dòng)輸出的能力。該領(lǐng)域包括分析祖細(xì)胞如何在胚胎發(fā)育過程中形成神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)，以及最初形成的神經(jīng)回路如何在出生后早期的經(jīng)歷中形成，以及成年人的更新和再生。一些研究使用成熟的、基因可訪問的模型系統(tǒng)，但也從提供行為或進(jìn)化洞見的不太傳統(tǒng)的模型中獲得有價(jià)值的洞見。

Neural Development is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers manuscripts on all aspects of research that use molecular, cellular, physiological or behavioural methods to provide novel insights into the mechanisms that underlie the formation of the nervous system, as well as its renewal and regeneration in adults.Neural Development aims to discover how the nervous system arises and acquires the abilities to sense the world and control adaptive motor output. The field includes analysis of how progenitor cells form a nervous system during embryogenesis, and how the initially formed neural circuits are shaped by experience during early postnatal life, as well as renewal and regeneration in adults. Some studies use well-established, genetically accessible model systems, but valuable insights are also obtained from less traditional models that provide behavioral or evolutionary insights.
