Ectodermal Competence

Ectodermal Competence is a developmental biology construct that denotes the inherent capacity of ectodermal cells to respond to neural inductive signals during early embryogenesis, thereby acquiring the potential to adopt neural fates in contrast to non-neural epidermal lineages.
