We report the dynamic anatomical sequence of human cortical gray matter development
between the age of 4–21 years using quantitative four-dimensional maps and time-lapse …

We used magnetic resonance imaging and cortical matching algorithms to map gray matter

Motivated by the vast amount of information that is rapidly accumulating about the human
brain in digital form, we embarked upon a program in 1992 to develop a four–dimensional …

Rationale The investigation of putative effects of early life stress (ELS) in humans on later
behavior and neurobiology is a fast develo** field. While epidemiological and …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides accurate anatomical brain images without the
use of ionizing radiation, allowing longitudinal studies of brain morphometry during …

Healthy human brain development is a complex process that continues during childhood
and adolescence, as demonstrated by many cross-sectional and several longitudinal …

According to the Cognitive Complexity and Control (CCC) theory, the development of
