From: Astrocytes, neurons, synapses: a tripartite view on cortical circuit development
A combined overview of astrocyte, neuron and synapse generation and development. Timeline (grey) of key developmental processes in the rodent cortex from embryonic stages to the end of the first month of life, from neurogenesis, to astrogenesis to synapse formation, maturation and stabilization. Developmental processes as occur in astrocytes (red, above), and neurons (purple, below) are shown. Each process is represented as a colored bar, with the gradient of color intensity marking the beginning, peak, and end of the process
