Neuroudvikling
Neuroudvikling, often translated as neurodevelopment, refers to the complex processes involved in the growth and maturation of the nervous system, particularly the brain, from conception through adolescence and into early adulthood. This intricate journey encompasses the generation of neurons, their migration to specific locations, the formation of connections between them (synapses), and the pruning of unnecessary connections. These processes are guided by a combination of genetic programming and environmental influences.
The stages of neuroudvikling begin early in prenatal development with neural tube formation, followed by the
Disruptions in neuroudvikling can lead to a variety of neurodevelopmental disorders. These conditions, such as autism
