Neural Development and Stem Cells

Neural Development and Stem Cells edited by Mahendra S. Rao, Melissa Carpenter, Mohan C. Vemuri.

For the third edition of this work Dr. Rao and his fellow editors have worked diligently with the contributors to revise and expand each chapter.  Additional information about our understanding of the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into the various neural cell types has been included.
