Introduction
This current page is a "landing page" for your study of sensory development (sight, smell, taste, hearing and balance) through the development of the specialized sense organs (eye, nose, tongue and ear). Portions of the eye, nose and ear appear very early in development as specialized surface regions (placodes) on the embryo, these regions must be connected to the central nervous system by neural pathways that originate as extensions of the central nervous system. This section of notes will not specifically cover the central nervous system component of these sensory systems, nor the sensory components of the skin (More? Neural System Development | Integumentary System Development | Neural Crest Development).
Use the links listed below to explore sensory development.
