Generalizable sex differences in functional brain organization follow the cortical hierarchy in youth

The paper examines sex differences in functional brain connectivity across youth, finding that males show greater network integration while females show greater network segregation along the sensorimotor-association axis.

Insula functional connectivity development follows a canonical antero-posterior axis of organization

This study examines insula functional connectivity development across 562 individuals, showing spatially heterogeneous changes aligned with an antero-posterior axis.

Inflections in adolescent cortical maturation signal psychopathology risk

The paper shows that differences in adolescent cortical maturation patterns predict psychiatric symptoms, with early maturing sensory regions linked to symptoms four years before their onset.

Intrinsic timescale develops hierarchically from sensorimotor to association cortex in youth and stabilizes in adulthood

Resting-state fMRI intrinsic timescale lengthens with age in association, not sensorimotor, cortex during ages 8-22, following the sensorimotor-association axis in two cohorts; it is largely age-stable in young adults.

A longitudinal data resource to study brain development and transdiagnostic variation in executive function

The paper introduces a longitudinal data resource combining multimodal imaging and cognitive phenotyping to study brain development and EF variation in adolescents.

Highly replicable multisite patterns of adolescent white matter maturation

The paper presents a curated dataset of processed diffusion MRI data from the ABCD Study, showing that specific diffusion metrics are sensitive to adolescent white matter development and robust to image quality variation.
