Book Description

Preface

Developmental neurobiology is an emerging discipline of neurosciences. Recent advances in molecular biology, newer morphological and biochemical techniques have now made it possible to get a better and more comprehensive picture of cellular maturation, migration and organisation, not hitherto possible. There are a few individuals/groups in India who are now pursuing these studies. Likewise there are several groups in the Soviet Union actively involved in this kind of research. With this in mind INSA decided to have a joint Symposium between Indian and Soviet Scientists to provide an opportunity for exchange of information and ideas at the highest level.

The first Indo-Soviet Symposium on 'Developmental Neurobiology and Neural Transplant' was held from November 25-28, 1988 in the Indian National Science Academy under the framework of INSA-USSR Academy of Sciences collaborative programme. The Symposium was inaugurated by the then President, INSA, Prof. A S Paintal. Soviet delegation was led by Dr V I Podachin and on Indian side by Prof. P N Tandon. Besides the formal presentation of the scientific data, the symposium provided an opportunity to the scientists from two countries for indepth discussion on Neurosciences. These discussions led to identification of specific areas of common interest for future collaboration.

The volume covers various topics pertaining to Neurobiology, like-Cell Kinetic, Migration and Maturation Factors, Connection and Specificity, Synaptogenesis, Neuronal Plasticity, Neural Transpiant, and Nerve Growth Factor and other trophic factors exposing the participants to the current scenario in the field.
