From the cavity inside the neural tube develops the [[ventricular system]], and, from the [[neuroepithelial cell]]s of its walls, the [[neuron]]s and [[neuroglia|glia]] of the nervous system. The most anterior (front, or cranial) part of the neural plate, the [[prosencephalon]], which is evident before [[neurulation]] begins, gives rise to the cerebral hemispheres and later cortex.<ref>{{cite book | vauthors = Larsen WJ, Sherman LS, Potter SS, Scott WJ |title=Human Embryology |date=2001 |publisher=Churchill Livingstone |location=New York |isbn=978-0-443-06583-5 |edition=3rd | pages = 421β422 }}</ref>
