NCIt definition : Human Nervous System Development begins by differentiation of gastrula ectodermal
cells into the neural plate, induced by signals from the mesoderm. Further development
of this primordium forms the neural crest and neural tube. Neural crest cells become

Cells in both structures differentiate into various glial cells and immature neurons
that migrate; differentiate axons, dendrites, and synapses; and mature.;
