Neural plate
The neural plate is thick and flat bundle of ectoderm which develops in the embryo into the nervous system.
Neural tube
[L. neuralis - nerve]. A tube of tissue formed by a thickening and rolling up of the neural plate during embryonic neurulation. It will later form the brain and spinal cord of the animal.

Neural Tube Defects
Neural tube defects (NTD) such as anencephaly and spina bifida and also cleft lips are examples of multifactorial traits which show a threshold effect.
neural crest
A band of cells along the border where the neural tube pinches off from the ectoderm; the cells migrate to various parts of the embryo and form the pigment cells in the skin, bones of the skull, the teeth, the adrenal glands, ...
neural tube A tube of ectoderm in the embryo that will form the spinal cord.
neuromuscular junction The point where a motor neuron attaches to a muscle cell.
Neural networks
A neural network, or neural net for short, is a problem-solving method based on a computer model of how neurons are connected in the brain.
neural tube - hollow cylindrical structure of neuroepithelial cells (in chordate embryos) that will give rise to the brain and spinal cord; an ectodermal derivative.

neural
Relating to the nerves or to the nervous system.
neuron
(nerve cell) the structural unit of the nervous system, usually consisting of the cell body and cytoplasmic extensions.

endoderm (e.g., liver).
So these cells are pluripotent. Although perhaps not as versatile as embryonic stem cells, they are more versatile than adult stem cells.
The midline neural plate cells in birds derived from the anterior midline of Hensen's node and epiblast region that are involved in the intial bending of the neural plate during neurulation.
Development of the neural tube starts from the neuroepithelium, which is a flat sheet of cells and it has the underlying mesoderm derivative of the notochord. The spinal chord, which ultimately is formed from the neural tube, is a solid rod.

There are stem cells in neural tissue that give rise to neurons and astroglial cells and things like that. And muscle has stem cells. And there are many different kinds of stem cells that have been identified in adults.

Chordates have the cells that will form the nervous system fold into a neural tube (which will eventually form the spinal cord). The mesoderm forms the notochord (which will eventually form the vertebrae).
Examples are the rapid movement of cells in developing embryos, organ-to-organ spreading of malignant cancer cells, and the migration of neural axons to synaptic targets.
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD): A disease of humans hypothesized to be caused by a prion, or a small protein, which alters the structure of a normal brain protein, resulting in destruction of brain neural tissue.
Spina bifida -- a congenital condition that results from altered fetal development of the spinal cord, part of the neural plate fails to join together and bone and muscle are unable to grow over this open section.
