Neurogenesis vs. Neurulation — What's the Difference?

Neurogenesis is the process by which nervous system cells, the neurons, are produced by neural stem cells (NSCs). It occurs in all species of animals except the porifera (sponges) and placozoans.

Neurulation refers to the folding process in vertebrate embryos, which includes the transformation of the neural plate into the neural tube. The embryo at this stage is termed the neurula.

Formation of nervous tissue.

The formation of the embryonic neural plate and its transformation into the neural tube.

(biology) The creation and development of neurons

(embryology) The process by which the beginnings of the vertebrate nervous system is formed in embryos.
