The adult human brain is organized into functional brain networks, groups of functionally
connected segregated brain regions. A key feature of adult functional networks is long-range …

Medical advancements in neonatology have significantly increased the number of high-risk
preterm survivors. However, recent long-term follow-up studies have suggested that preterm …

A robust functional bimodality is found in the long-range spatial correlations of newborn
cortical activity, and it likely provides the developmentally crucial functional coordination …

The first postnatal year is characterized by the most dramatic functional network
development of the human lifespan. Yet, the relative sequence of the maturation of different …

Early human brain development constitutes a sequence of intricate processes resulting in
the ontogeny of functionally operative neural circuits. Developmental trajectories of early …

Consisting of distributed and interconnected structures that interact through cortico-cortical
connections and cortico-subcortical loops, the sensorimotor (SM) network undergoes rapid …

Recent advances in brain imaging have enabled non-invasive in vivo assessment of the
fetal brain. Characterizing brain development in healthy fetuses provides baseline measures …

Structural brain connections develop atypically in very preterm children, and altered
functional connectivity is also evident in fMRI studies. Such alterations in brain network …

Formation of the functional connectome in early life underpins future learning and behavior.
However, our understanding of how the functional organization of brain regions into …

Functional brain networks are assessed differently earlier versus later in development:
infants are almost universally scanned asleep, whereas adults are typically scanned awake …
