Gestational age: 7 weeks and 0 days until 7 weeks and 6 days old. 50–56 days from last menstruation. Embryonic age: Week nr 6. 5 weeks old. 36–42 days from fertilization. The embryo measures 13 mm (1 ⁄ 2 in) in length. Lungs begin to form. The brain continues to develop. Arms and legs have lengthened with foot and hand areas distinguishable.
In humans, it is estimated that granule cells begin to be generated during gestation weeks 10.5 to 11, and continue being generated during the second and third trimesters, after birth and all the way into adulthood. [26] [27] The germinal sources of granule cells and their migration pathways [28] have been studied during rat brain development ...

Birth/Rebirth will grab you by the guts with its mercilessly scary opening sequence. It's not just that Laura Moss's directorial feature debut delves into a terrifying Frankenstein-inspired tale.
There are two points in rodent brain development during which treatment with choline, a neurotransmitter, produces lifelong enhancement of spatial memory. Choline, a neurotransmitter important for spatial memory. The first point is at 12–17 days into embryo development, and the second is between 16 and 30 days after the rat has been born.

Brain areas that undergo significant post-natal development, such as those involved in memory and emotion are more vulnerable to effects of early life stress. [ 58 ] [ 64 ] For example, the hippocampus continues to develop after birth and is a structure that is affected by childhood maltreatment. [ 64 ]
At birth the infantile brain contains 100 billion neurons – as many as in the brain of an adult. [4] In order to have this many neurons at birth, the fetus's brain must produce neurons at the rate of 250,000 per minute. [3] At birth, every cortical neuron is connected with about 2500 neurons; after a year, with about 15 000. [5]
