The multiple skeletal components of the skull originate asynchronously and their developmental schedule varies across amniotes. Here we present the embryonic ossification sequence of 134 species, ...

Neural circuits produce electrical patterns very early in the brain's development process, even before senses are active.

The study states that brain development follows a developmental progression - it is also able to retain their ability to change, adapt and remodel. A recent Penn Medicine study found that brain ...

Washington: According to a new Penn Medicine study, brain development does not occur uniformly across the brain. It follows a newly identified developmental sequence. Brain regions that support ...

Washington: A recent Penn Medicine study found that brain development does not take place consistently throughout the entire brain. It follows a recently discovered developmental progression. Young ...

Amidst the hoopla over the exact number of genes we have in our genome—more than a fruitfly, fewer than a rice plant—a more fundamental genetic truth has often been obscured. The expression of ...

The sculpting of neuronal connections during brain development depends on a precise balance between inhibition and excitation — an excess of GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid)-mediated inhibition might ...

2 issues central to the construct validity of Kohlberg's organismic 6-stage model of moral judgment development are empirically assessed: (a) stepwise, invariant sequence and (b) irreversibility of ...
