The importance and impact of discoveries about neural crest fates
Résumé
We review here some of the historical highlights in exploratory studies of the vertebrate embryonic structure known as the neural crest. The study of the molecular properties of the cells that it produces, their migratory capacities and plasticity, and the still-‐growing list of tissues that depend on their presence for form and function, continue to enrich our understanding of congenital malformations, pediatric cancers but also of evolutionary biology.
