The early development of the brain provides a template for some key aspects of neuroplasticity and neurogenesis that occur throughout life. So, understanding how the fetus and infant develop will help to better understand brain structures and functions. Early development unfolds in orderly stages. ...

The temporal evolution of the brain throughout life provides a fourth dimension, one that influences every element of the brain's function in health and disease. This temporal evolution contributes to the probability of seizure generation and to the type and the nature of these seizures. The age...
Work published today shows that brain cells need to create links early on in their existence, when they are physically close together, to ensure successful connections across the brain throughout life. Ad In people, these long-distance connections enable the left and right side of thebrainto comm...

ethnic groups, diverse disease populations, and various age ranges spanning the entire lifespan. This expansion can be facilitated by leveraging the resources of large-scale brain imaging genetic consortia like ADNI40, focused on Alzheimer’s disease, and ABCD80, which centers on brain development ...
