Nine subcortical/cerebellar atlases included in the subcortex_visualization Python package (and subcortexVisualizationR package in R). The atlases are depicted in two-dimensional vector graphic format.

The extended version of my thesis procrastination project/subcortex visualization package is out now in both Python and R, now that I’ve graduated 🀠 This figure shows the 9 atlases included (and counting)!

We highlight several avenues to further delineate how experience interacts with the plasticity of the developing human brain – longitudinal designs, multimodal in vivo indices of neuroplasticity, heterogeneity of adversity exposure, and consideration of nurturing and promotive experiences

Third, drawing from in vivo proxies of neuroplasticity (e.g., myelination, intrinsic activity, metabolite concentrations), we argue that adversity may dampen or amplify the magnitude of neuroplasticity

01.12.2025 16:58 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Second, neuroplasticity is itself malleable and sensitive to experience (i.e., plasticity as an outcome). Consistent with prior theory, we propose that adversity may accelerate or delay brain maturation, thereby shifting the developmental timing of neuroplasticity

For example, the neurobiological effects of adversity exposure may be more widespread, and localized to early-maturing limbic regions, earlier in life – but more localized to later-maturing prefrontal regions later in development

First, we discuss how the state and location of neuroplasticity during the timing of exposure may modulate how adversity becomes biologically embedded (i.e., plasticity as a moderator)

We next propose three ways in which experience, focusing on adversity, may interact with neurodevelopmental plasticity. Understanding these dynamics can help elucidate how experience shapes development, risk, and resilience, and may ultimately inform the type and timing of interventions

Synthesizing across developmental periods, we describe how neuroplasticity may be globally heightened during early childhood and localized later on, progressing along a sensorimotor-association axis across childhood and adolescence

Neuroplasticity has been difficult to define and assess – from process or capacity to change, to experience-dependent or expectant mechanisms, to separating experience-driven remodeling from development and genetic programming. We focus on plasticity as the brain’s capacity to adapt to experience

🚨 Excited to share the latest preprint form the lab ➑️https://tinyurl.com/32d3be9f

Here we tackle a long-standing chicken-or-egg 🐣πŸ₯šquestion in #autism and developmental neuroscience

➑️ Is excitation–inhibition (E:I) imbalance a "cause" or a "consequence" of #autism?

Check out what we found!
