The paper shows two architectural gradients in human visual cortex that correlate with structural, functional, and behavioral traits across the lifespan.

This paper shows that human ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC) develops distinct category-selective representations that undergo prolonged, hemisphere-specific refinement, unlike ventral temporal cortex which shows early, stable organization.

The paper examines the relationship between the left posterior occipital temporal sulcus (lhpOTS) and reading skills in children with and without dyslexia, finding that lhpOTS patterns do not predict dyslexia or intervention response.

This study examines how visuospatial processing in high-level visual cortex develops from adolescence to adulthood using fMRI and pRF modeling, revealing category- and stream-specific changes.

The paper investigates functional connectivity among sulci in lateral prefrontal and parietal cortex using individual sulcal morphology to link anatomy to cognition in children and adolescents.

The paper examines how visuospatial computations differ by category and visual stream and how they develop during adolescence using fMRI and pRF modeling.

The paper shows that a limb-selective region in visual cortex defies the eccentricity theory, revealing a parabolic topography shaped by visual experience and innate wiring.

The paper shows that prefrontal cortex undergoes unique functional and structural development, with visual representations reorganizing into stable patterns and tissue pruning occurring during adolescence.

The paper examines how the presence or absence of a prefrontal sulcus correlates with reasoning performance in children during development.

The paper identifies sulcal depth in lateral prefrontal cortex as a predictor of verbal working memory performance in children and adolescents.

The paper defines tertiary sulci in chimpanzee lateral prefrontal cortex using human predictions and finds differences in sulcal morphology between chimpanzees and humans.

The paper links variability in evolutionarily new prefrontal cortex sulci to individual differences in reasoning skills in children, supporting a theory of protracted development and improved neural efficiency.
