  • Controlling for whole brain volume reduces

magnitude of cortical volumetric development

Regional differences in cortical development

Tamnes et al., 2017

Cortical Grey Matter 388 participants 854 scans 51% female

Grey matter volume is the product of cortical thickness and surface area

Winkler et al., 2010

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Tamnes et al., 2017

Cortical Thickness vs. Surface Area

  • There is less inter-individual variability in cortical thickness than in

surface area

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Cortical Thickness vs. Surface Area

  • Cortical thinning is the dominant contributor to cortical volume

reductions during adolescence

Tamnes et al., 2017

Inter-individual variability in cortical thickness development

Data from Four Labs Collaboration

Drawing inferences about an individual’s brain maturity requires longitudinal data!

slide-27
SLIDE 27

Longitudinal brain development fMRI

  • Inter-individual variability can be greater in fMRI than sMRI
  • Variability in overall size (intercept)
  • Variability in direction and magnitude of change (slope)

Resting-state functional connectivity

Braams et al., 2015 van Duijvenvoorde et al., 2019 Mills et al., in prep

slide-28
SLIDE 28
  • Modular segregation in structural and functional connectivity

General principles about connectivity

Bassett, Xia, and Satterthwaite, 2018 Functional Structural

slide-29
SLIDE 29

Keep in Mind

  • Maybe longitudinal data are not needed if baseline data

provide the relevant information (and change does not)

  • We can only know if we test – so please do!
