Parcellations and hemispheric asymmetries of human cerebral cortex analyzed on surface-based atlases

DC Van Essen, MF Glasser, DL Dierker… - Cerebral …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
We report on surface-based analyses that enhance our understanding of human cortical
organization, including its convolutions and its parcellation into many distinct areas. The surface …

Similar patterns of cortical expansion during human development and evolution

J Hill, T Inder, J Neil, D Dierker… - Proceedings of the …, 2010 - National Acad Sciences
The cerebral cortex of the human infant at term is complexly folded in a similar fashion to adult
cortex but has only one third the total surface area. By comparing 12 healthy infants born …

[HTML][HTML] Surface-based and probabilistic atlases of primate cerebral cortex

DC Van Essen, DL Dierker - Neuron, 2007 - cell.com
Brain atlases play an increasingly important role in neuroimaging, as they are invaluable for
analysis, visualization, and comparison of results across studies. For both humans and …

Defining functional areas in individual human brains using resting functional connectivity MRI

…, DA Fair, NUF Dosenbach, FM Miezin, D Dierker… - Neuroimage, 2008 - Elsevier
The cerebral cortex is anatomically organized at many physical scales starting at the level of
single neurons and extending up to functional systems. Current functional magnetic …

Canonical genetic signatures of the adult human brain

…, CK Lee, A Bernard, MF Glasser, DL Dierker… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
The structure and function of the human brain are highly stereotyped, implying a conserved
molecular program responsible for its development, cellular structure and function. We …

Alterations in brain structure and neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants hospitalized in different neonatal intensive care unit environments

RG Pineda, J Neil, D Dierker, CD Smyser… - The Journal of …, 2014 - Elsevier
Objective To evaluate associations between neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) room type (open
ward and private room) and medical outcomes; neurobehavior, electrophysiology, and …

A surface-based analysis of hemispheric asymmetries and folding of cerebral cortex in term-born human infants

J Hill, D Dierker, J Neil, T Inder, A Knutsen… - Journal of …, 2010 - Soc Neuroscience
We have established a population average surface-based atlas of human cerebral cortex at
term gestation and used it to compare infant and adult cortical shape characteristics. …

Cortical folding abnormalities in autism revealed by surface-based morphometry

CW Nordahl, D Dierker, I Mostafavi… - Journal of …, 2007 - Soc Neuroscience
We tested for cortical shape abnormalities using surface-based morphometry across a range
of autism spectrum disorders (7.5–18 years of age). We generated sulcal depth maps from …

[PDF][PDF] Spatial and temporal organization of the individual human cerebellum

…, JJ Berg, RS Coalson, AL Nguyen, D Dierker… - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
The cerebellum contains the majority of neurons in the human brain and is unique for its
uniform cytoarchitecture, absence of aerobic glycolysis, and role in adaptive plasticity. Despite …

Symmetry of cortical folding abnormalities in Williams syndrome revealed by surface-based analyses

DC Van Essen, D Dierker, AZ Snyder… - Journal of …, 2006 - Soc Neuroscience
We analyzed folding abnormalities in the cerebral cortex of subjects with Williams syndrome
(WS), a genetically based developmental disorder, using surface-based analyses applied to …
