Introduction
Welcome to "brain awareness"!
In today's demonstration we will be looking at how the brain develops from a simple tube into the complex folded structure you will be seeing today.

<Flowplayer height="588" width="560" autoplay="true">Stage13_3dCNSlarge.flv</Flowplayer> | 3 Dimensional Reconstruction
Based upon a serial reconstruction from individual embryo slice images. (6 mm pig embryo, approximately Human day 32, Carnegie Stage 13/14 embryo) The ectoderm contributes the neural tube structures of the central nervous system. Below the animation is a more complete description of this system.
