The chick embryonic midbrain offers an effective model to monitor the effects of gene overexpression or knockdown on neural progenitor differentiation at multiple different points during development. To better characterize the effect of gene manipulation by in ovoelectroporation, we are using quantitative PCR to screen the effect of gene overexpression on markers of neural progenitor differentiation, followed by anatomical analysis of interesting candidate genes. These approaches are undertaken with undergraduate researchers, providing an optimal forum to reinforce principles of developmental biology and also to identify and characterize unknown genes or genetic mutants. These approaches can be applied broadly to allow investigators to read...
