Increasing evidence suggests that the development and function of the nervous system is heavily dependent on RNA editing and the intricate spatiotemporal expression of a wide repertoire of non‐coding RNAs, including micro RNAs, small nucleolar RNAs and longer non‐coding RNAs. Non‐coding RNAs may provide the key to understanding the multi‐tiered links between neural development, nervous system function, and neurological diseases.
