Isolating Cranial Neural Folds From a Chick Embryo for a Neural Crest Cell Culture

Source: Jacques-Fricke, B. T., et al. Preparation and Morphological Analysis of Chick Cranial Neural Crest Cell Cultures. J. Vis. Exp. (2022). This video illustrates a technique for isolating cranial neural folds from the midbrain region of chick embryos. It presents a detailed dissection process of the neural folds, their placement, and attachment on fibronectin-coated coverslips, followed by the observation of neural crest cell migration from the neural folds.
