Family income, parental education and brain structure in children and adolescents
Socioeconomic disparities are associated with differences in cognitive development. The
extent to which this translates to disparities in brain structure is unclear. We investigated …

The contribution of network organization and integration to the development of cognitive control
Cognitive control, which continues to mature throughout adolescence, is supported by the
ability for well-defined organized brain networks to flexibly integrate information. However …
