Understanding typical, healthy brain development provides a baseline from which to detect
and characterize brain anomalies associated with various neurological or psychiatric …

Background Obesity has been linked with subtle differences in brain structure. These
differences tend to be especially relevant in prefrontal cortex regions, areas which play an …

Despite interindividual differences in cortical structure, cross‐sectional and longitudinal
studies have demonstrated a large degree of population‐level consistency in age‐related …

How is the human brain shaped by our sociocultural experiences? What neural correlates
underlie the extraordinary cultural diversity of human behavior? How do our genes interact …

Previous studies have demonstrated that cortical thickness (CT) is under strong genetic
control across the life span. However, little is known about genetic influences that cause …

A common practice in the cognitive neurosciences is to investigate population-typical
phenomena, treating individuals as equal except for a few outliers that are usually discarded …

Contrary to many historical views, recent evidence suggests that species‐level behavioral
and brain asymmetries are evident in nonhuman species. Here, we briefly present evidence …

Imaging genetics provides an opportunity to discern associations between genetic variants
and brain imaging phenotypes. Historically, the field has focused on adults and adolescents; …

There is evidence that differences among individuals in white matter microstructure, as
measured with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), are under genetic control. However, little is …

Background Obesity is a multi-systemic disease with complex etiology. And consistent
evidence indicated obesity or overweight subjects render brain structure changes …
