This study examines neonatal functional brain network organisation using fMRI and links it to childhood neurodevelopmental outcomes, finding associations with later difficulties in 4-6 year olds.

This study examines how thalamocortical innervation timing and spatial distribution influence cortical network formation during gestation, finding that hubs emerge from spatiotemporal constraints rather than preferential targeting.

This paper validates a motion correction technique, DISORDER, for pediatric brain morphometry, showing improved reliability for motion-degraded scans compared to conventional MPRAGE.

This study uses in vivo tractography to examine neonatal white matter pathways related to hypothalamic and reward functions, linking early-life factors to later neurodevelopmental and obesity outcomes.

This study uses MRI to compare brain volumes in neonates with Down syndrome to a control group, finding reduced whole brain volume in DS infants.
