During evolution, the cerebral cortex advances by increasing in surface and the introduction
of new cytoarchitectonic areas among which the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is considered to be …

The brain of modern humans has evolved remarkable computational abilities that enable
higher cognitive functions. These capacities are tightly linked to an increase in the size and …

Brain development is an extraordinarily complex process achieved through the spatially and
temporally regulated release of key patterning factors. In vitro neurodevelopmental models …

Brain organoids are self-assembled three-dimensional aggregates generated from
pluripotent stem cells with cell types and cytoarchitectures that resemble the embryonic …

Understanding the development and dysfunction of the human brain is a major goal of
neurobiology. Much of our current understanding of human brain development has been …

Brain enlargement has been observed in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but
the timing of this phenomenon, and the relationship between ASD and the appearance of …

INTRODUCTION The cerebral cortex underlies our complex cognitive capabilities.
Variations in human cortical surface area and thickness are associated with neurological …

Alongside the exponential flourish of research on age-related trajectories of human brain
development during childhood and adolescence in the past two decades, there has been an …

Before we can assess and interpret how developmental changes in human brain structure
relate to cognition, affect, and motivation, and how these processes are perturbed in clinical …

Our understanding of the genetics of the human cerebral cortex is limited both in terms of the
diversity and the anatomical granularity of brain structural phenotypes. Here we conducted a …
