The trajectory of the developing brain is characterized by a sequence of complex, nonlinear
patterns that occur at systematic stages of maturation. Although significant prior …

Adolescence is a time of extensive neural restructuring, leaving one susceptible to atypical
development. Although neural maturation in humans can be measured using functional and …

BACKGROUND: Neural development during human childhood and adolescence involves
highly coordinated and sequenced events, characterized by both progressive and …

An emerging hypothesis in developmental and behavioral disorders is that they arise from
disorganized brain messaging or reduced connectivity. Given the importance of myelin to …

Structural MRI allows unparalleled in vivo study of the anatomy of the developing human
brain. For more than two decades [1], MRI research has revealed many new aspects of this …

Quantitative assessments of normative brain development using MRI are of critical
importance to gain insights into healthy neurodevelopment. However, quantitative MR …

The normal myelination of neuronal axons is essential to neurodevelopment, allowing fast
inter‐neuronal communication. The most dynamic period of myelination occurs in the first …

The accurate prediction of fetal brain age using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may
contribute to the identification of brain abnormalities and the risk of adverse developmental …

The elaboration of the myelinated white matter is essential for normal neurodevelopment,
establishing and mediating rapid communication pathways throughout the brain. These …

From birth to 5 years of age, brain structure matures and evolves alongside emerging
cognitive and behavioral abilities. In relating concurrent cognitive functioning and measures …
