Title: Protracted Development of Association Cortex in Youth
Abstract: During childhood and adolescence, cortical development progresses from lower-order unimodal cortices to higher-order association cortices. Here we will review recent work from large-scale neuroimaging studies that illustrate how this protracted developmental program endows the brain’s association cortices with unique functional properties to support executive function, but also leaves humans at risk for diverse psychopathologies.
*There will be light refreshments.
