Term Name: midbrain-hindbrain boundary development
Synonyms: isthmic organizer development, isthmomesencephalic boundary development, isthmus development, MHB development, midbrain-hindbrain orgainizer development
Definition: The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the midbrain-hindbrain boundary over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The midbrain-hindbrain domain of the embryonic brain is comprised of the mesencephalic vesicle and the first rhombencephalic vesicle at early somitogenesis stages.
