Title: Fundamental aspects of the developing brain: Synapse formation
Abstract: The phenomena presiding over sy nap to genesis in the developing brain, notably death of neurons and the nerve growth factor are described as well as the neurobiological and ultrastructural features of synapse maturation. Synapse and connection specificity in the brain versus plasticity are given consideration. Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy is suggested as a possible example of defective synaptogenesis.
