The commitment of cells to specific cell fates and their capacity to differentiate into particular kinds of cells. Positional information is established through protein signals that emanate from a localized source within a cell (the initial one-cell zygote) or within a developmental field. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron that will reside in the forebrain. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a neuron whose cell body resides in the central nervous system. The process whereby the developmental fate of a cell becomes restricted such that it will develop into a neuron that resides in the forebrain. The initial commitment of cells whereby the developmental fate of a cell becomes restricted such that it will develop into some type of neuron in the forebrain. The process whereby the developmental fate of a cell becomes restricted such that it will develop into a neuron. The commitment of neuronal precursor cells to become specialized types of neurons in the forebrain. The process by which nerve cells are generated in the forebrain. This includes the production of neuroblasts from and their differentiation into neurons.
