This Embryology category shows pages and media related to glial development. This diverse population of central (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) cells have many different functions. These cells are mainly generated from the same stem cell population that produces neurons. Note that the peripheral nervous system glia are produced, like their neurons, from neural crest.

In the central nervous system a key developmental function is the guidance of neuronal migration by radial glia cells.
