1. Development of Segregation and Integration of Functional Connectomes during the First 1000 Days

COEX 

The first 1000 days, from conception to the first 3 postnatal years1, are critical periods during which the human brain undergoes a remarkable process of growth and reorganization2. One of the most important aspects of this process is to unravel the developmental rules of segregation and integration of functional connectomes. Understanding how these processes mature during this critical period is a crucial step in elucidating the mechanisms underlying typical and atypical development. Here, we investigated the continuous, longitudinal developmental process of functional segregation and integration during the first 1000 days and the potential genetic contributions underlying connectome growth.
