Cognition arises as a result of coordinated processing among distributed brain regions and
disruptions to communication within these neural networks can result in cognitive …

Inter-individual differences can inform treatment procedures and—if accounted for—have
the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes. However, when studying brain …

Background A growing body of evidence links socioeconomic status (SES) to children's
brain structure. Few studies, however, have specifically investigated relations of SES to …

Abstract The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) recently added diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI), among several other new imaging modalities, in an effort to identify …

Executive functions are often considered lynchpin “frontal lobe tasks”, despite accumulating
evidence that a broad network of anterior and posterior brain structures supports them …

The frontal aslant tract (FAT) is a pathway that connects the inferior frontal gyrus with the
supplementary motor area (SMA) and pre-SMA. The FAT was recently identified and …

To identify common variants contributing to normal variation in two specific domains of
cognitive functioning, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of executive …

Progress in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) now makes it possible to identify the major
white matter tracts in the living human brain. These tracts are important because they carry …

The fornix is a part of the limbic system and constitutes the major efferent and afferent white
matter tracts from the hippocampi. The underdevelopment of or injuries to the fornix are …

Objective To characterize white matter alterations in children with isolated or concurrent
developmental coordination disorder and/or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) …
