TL;DR: Data quality both inflated and obscured associations with age during adolescence, indicating that reliable measures of data quality can be automatically derived from T1‐weighted volumes, and that failing to control for dataquality can systematically bias the results of studies of brain maturation.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that structure–function coupling in rostrolateral prefrontal cortex supports age-related improvements in executive ability, and marked remodeling of structure– function coupling in youth is documented, which aligns with cortical hierarchies of functional specialization and evolutionary expansion.

TL;DR: The pattern of prefrontal cortex underactivation and parahippocampal overactivation in the patients suggests that functional connectivity of dorsolateral prefrontal and temporal-limbic structures is disrupted by schizophrenia and may be reflected in the memory strategies of patients with schizophrenia, which include reliance on rote rehearsal rather than associative semantic processing.

TL;DR: Using in vivo neuroimaging data from more than 3000 individuals, it is found that larger human brains show greater areal expansion in distributed frontoparietal cortical networks and related subcortical regions than in limbic, sensory, and motor systems.

TL;DR: A modification of an existing module detection algorithm that allowed it to focus on connections that are unexpected under a cost-reduction wiring rule and to identify modules from among these connections, which support the hypothesis that brain networks are composed of modules and provide additional insight into the function of those modules.
