These findings provide a fine-grained, mechanistic view of how infant brains fold—and new insights to biomarkers of neurodevelopment

We found that how sulci deepen follows the time of their emergence in utero and is predicted by coordinated changes in sulcal span, thickness, curvature, and microstructural tissue growth.

Curious how infant brains fold? I’m excited to share our new study spearheaded by Sarah Tung and Vaidehi Natu now on bioRxiv! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Sarah and Vaidehi examined how the grooves of the brain (sulci) develop in individual infant’s brain during the first year of life.

How infant brains fold: Sulcal deepening is linked to development of sulcal span, thickness, curvature, and microstructure
Cortical folding begins in utero as sulci emerge and continues postnatally as sulci deepen. However, the timeline and mechanisms underlying postnatal sulcal development remain unknown. Using structura...

Excited to share on my first post on Bluesky our new paper in NHB examine the innate and developing aspects of the wiring of the visual system. Congratulations to @emilykubota.bsky.social and the baby MRI team on this important work
