Studying how the healthy human brain develops is important to understand early
pathological mechanisms and to assess the influence of fetal or perinatal events on later life …

The human brain develops slowly and over a long period of time which lasts for almost three
decades. This enables good spatio-temporal resolution of histogenetic and neurogenetic …

Longitudinal characterization of early brain growth in-utero has been limited by a number of
challenges in fetal imaging, the rapid change in size, shape and volume of the developing …

Importance Prenatal maternal stress is increasingly associated with adverse outcomes in
pregnant women and their offspring. However, the association between maternal stress and …

Importance Prenatal maternal psychological distress is associated with disturbances in fetal
brain development. However, the association between altered fetal brain development …

Germinal matrix-intraventricular haemorrhage (GMH-IVH), periventricular haemorrhagic
infarction (PHI) and its complication, post-haemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD), are …

This study characterizes global and hemispheric brain growth in healthy human fetuses
during the second half of pregnancy using three-dimensional MRI techniques. We studied …

Sex-related differences in brain and behavior are apparent across the life course, but the
exact set of processes that guide their emergence in utero remains a topic of vigorous …

Prenatal life encompasses a critical phase of human brain development, but
neurodevelopmental consequences of normative differences in prenatal growth among full …

The fetal brain shows accelerated growth in the latter half of gestation, and these changes
can be captured by 2D and 3D biometry measurements. The aim of this study was to …
