Abstract: | The following review articles are based on presentations given at a Symposium on Neural Crest Development, held in December 1996 at St George's Hospital Medical School, London. The Symposium formed part of the Winter Meeting of the Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland. There were 6 invited speakers, 5 selected short presentations, and posters. The topics ranged widely, from autocrine regulation of Schwann cell development through clinical and animal disorders involving the melanocyte lineage, the heart and other organs, to the regulation of neural crest cell differentiation by cytokines. |
