DOI: 10.1007/s00429-020-02117-3
Abstract: Functional responses recorded during the last trimester of gestation reveal that human sensory activity begins before birth, allowing the brain to process the external environment. Along with the maturation of the brain, new cognitive skills… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00429-020-02132-4
Abstract: Large-scale longitudinal neuroimaging studies of the infant brain allow us to map the spatiotemporal development of the brain in its early phase. While the postmenstrual age (PMA) is commonly used as a time index to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2022.119097
Abstract: Spatiotemporal (four-dimensional) infant-dedicated brain atlases are essential for neuroimaging analysis of early dynamic brain development. However, due to the substantial technical challenges in the acquisition and processing of infant brain MR images, 4D atlases densely… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41390-018-0203-9
Abstract: An intrinsic feature of the developing brain is high susceptibility to environmental influence—known as plasticity. Research indicates cascading disruption to neurological development following preterm (PT) birth; yet, the interactive effects of PT birth and plasticity… read more here.
