DESCRIPTION:Forebrain functioning relies on complex circuits that begin to
  be established in the embryo via an integrated choreography of neuronal m
 igration and axonal navigation. Such developmental programs can be perturb
 ed by activation of the immune system\, as illustrated by the fact that pr
 enatal inflammation is a major risk factor for schizophrenia and autism sp
 ectrum disorders. Here\, we will explore how neuronal migration and tract 
 formation are coordinated in vivo and how cells of the immune system\, mic
 roglia\, contribute to normal and pathological forebrain wiring.
