Delineating the association of age and cortical thickness in healthy individuals is critical
given the association of cortical thickness with cognition and behavior. Previous research …

Twin studies yield valuable insights into the sources of variation, covariation and causation
in human traits. The ABCD Study®(abcdstudy. org) was designed to take advantage of four …

Humans need about seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Sleep habits are heritable,
associated with brain function and structure, and intrinsically related to well-being, mental …

The role of magnetic resonance (MR) neuroimaging in studying brain development in the
first three decades of life is reviewed, in terms of its relevance to pediatric neuropsychology …

Adolescence is a period of major brain reorganization shaped by biologically timed and by
environmental factors. We sought to discover linked patterns of covariation between brain …

Identifying associations between interindividual variability in brain structure and behaviour
requires large cohorts, multivariate methods, out-of-sample validation and, ideally, out-of …

The mechanisms underlying cortical folding are incompletely understood. Prior studies have
suggested that individual differences in sulcal depth are genetically mediated, with deeper …

It is well established that higher cognitive ability is associated with larger brain size.
However, individual variation in intelligence exists despite brain size and recent studies …

The cerebral cortex contains a significant quantity of intracortical myelin, but the genetics of
cortical myelination (CM) in humans is not well understood. Relatively novel MRI-derived …

Recent large-scale, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of
genetic loci associated with general intelligence. The cumulative influence of these loci on …
