Brief description The intestine has its own nervous system. This develops from cells that wander into the intestine during early development and self-organize to form the functional nervous system . The correct organization of the cells of this nervous system is required for correct intestine function. How they self-organize is not known, and there are diseases in which the process is disturbed. Molecular and cell biology and mathematical modelling will be used to understand how this occurs.
