Autism spectrum disorder common variants associated with regional lobe volume variations at birth: cross-sectional study in 273 European term neonates in developing Human Connectome Project

Hai Le, Daphna Fenchel, Konstantina Dimitrakopoulou…·Harriet Cullen

This study links ASD common genetic variants to regional brain volume differences in newborns, finding positive associations with frontal and fronto-temporal volumes and negative associations with parietal and parieto-occipital volumes.

Development of neonatal brain functional centrality and alterations associated with preterm birth

Sunniva Fenn‐Moltu, Sean P. Fitzgibbon, Judit Ciarrusta…·Dafnis Batallé

The paper examines how functional brain centrality develops in neonates and how preterm birth affects it, finding age-related changes and regional differences but no direct link to 18-month neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Cortical morphology at birth reflects spatio-temporal patterns of gene expression in the fetal human brain

Gareth Ball, Jakob Seidlitz, Jonathan O’Muircheartaigh…·Anthony David Edwards

The paper links cortical morphology at birth to gene expression patterns in the fetal brain and shows preterm birth disrupts this relationship.

Development of Microstructural and Morphological Cortical Profiles in the Neonatal Brain

Daphna Fenchel, Ralica Dimitrova, Jakob Seidlitz…·Jonathan O’Muircheartaigh

The paper develops cortical profiles in neonatal brains using MRI to track morphometric and microstructural changes, revealing how network similarity evolves over time.
