The thalidomide sensitive period goes from day 21 past conception onwards to day 42.
(Dr Janet McCredie, "Thalidomide - Birth Defects Explained", London, The Royal Society of Medicine Press, 2007, p. 189 and many other places in the book}
McCredie suggests, p. 126, that the hypothesis of neural crest injury is the underlying pathogenetic mechanism of many congenital malformations. And concludes, pp. 150 - 151, that the thalidomide-sensitive period coincides with neural crest development, but not with limb development
That's what I understand. I have no knowledge of (human) Biology and related sciences. I'm only a dumb thalidomide-monster.
What else can I help you with?
How did thalidomide affect babies?
