Dynamic macrostructural and microstructural changes take place from the mid-fetal stage to
2 years after birth. Delineating structural changes of the brain during early development …

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 …

This work introduces a compartment-based model for apparent cell body (namely soma) and
neurite density imaging (SANDI) using non-invasive diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI). The …

The human brain undergoes rapid growth in both structure and function from infancy through
early childhood, and this significantly influences cognitive and behavioral development in …

Early life exposure to air pollution has been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders.
Emerging evidence are highlighting a possible impact of air pollution on typically developing …

Early brain development, from the embryonic period to infancy, is characterized by rapid
structural and functional changes. These changes can be studied using structural and …

Convolutions are a classical hallmark of most mammalian brains. Brain surface morphology
is often associated with intelligence and closely correlated with neurological dysfunction …

The most prominent transient compartment of the primate fetal cortex is the deep, cell-
sparse, synapse-containing subplate compartment (SPC). The developmental role of the …

Introduction The dynamic nature and complexity of the cellular events that take place during
the last trimester of pregnancy make the developing cortex particularly vulnerable to …

Brain white matter connections have become a focus of major interest with important
maturational processes occurring in newborns. To study the complex microstructural …
