Brain development follows a protracted developmental timeline with foundational processes
of neurodevelopment occurring from the third trimester of gestation into the first decade of …

Features of brain asymmetry have been implicated in a broad range of cognitive processes;
however, their origins are still poorly understood. Here we investigated cortical asymmetries …

Thalamus is a critical component of the limbic system that is extensively involved in both
basic and high-order brain functions. However, how the thalamic structure and function …

Fetal brain extraction from in utero magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is a key step
for fetal brain development analysis. As the unpredicted fetal motion and maternal breathing …

Preterm‐born neonates are prone to impaired neurodevelopment that may be associated
with disrupted whole‐brain structural connectivity. The present study aimed to investigate …

Cerebral asymmetry is a cardinal feature of functional organization in the human brain and
an important biomarker of successful brain development. Studies have demonstrated that …

Acting as a central hub in regulating brain functions, the thalamus plays a pivotal role in
controlling high-order brain functions. Considering the impact of preterm birth on infant brain …

Non-cystic white matter (WM) injury has become prevalent among preterm newborns and is
associated with long-term neurodevelopmental impairment. Magnetic resonance is the gold …

Accumulating evidence have documented sex differences in brain anatomy from early
childhood to late adulthood. However, whether sex difference of brain structure emerges in …

Inherent hemispheric asymmetry is important for cognition, language and other functions.
Describing normal brain and asymmetry development during early development will …
