Volume 73 contains papers discussed at the 15th Summer School for Brain Research held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands; the intention of which was to present high level didactic reviews of important lines of investigation in the neurochemistry of functional neuroteratology; permanent effects of chemical on the developing brain. This topic was chosen to broaden our understanding of an increasingly important branch of brain research generally called behavioural teratology. Rather than focussing on gross abnormalities in development as encountered in classical teratology, this field concentrates on the subtle, but long-lasting, changes found in the brain due to deleterious chemical and environmental factors experienced during neurogenesis and maturation.
