The process by which a cell in a multicellular organism interprets its surroundings. The process by which a neuronal cell in a multicellular organism interprets its surroundings. The process by which a neuronal cell in a multicellular organism interprets signals produced by potential target cells, with which it may form synapses. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a neuron over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell. The process by which a neuronal cell in a multicellular organism recognizes chemorepellent signals that inhibit its growth toward the source. The process by which a neuronal cell in a multicellular organism recognizes chemoattractant signals from, and grows towards, potential targets.
