Butterfly effects in perceptual development: A review of the 'adaptive initial degradation' hypothesis

Human perceptual development evolves in a stereotyped fashion, with initially limited perceptual capabilities maturing over the months or years following the commencement of sensory experience into robust proficiencies. This review focuses on the functiona ...

Heterogeneity and developmental dynamics of mammalian neocortical progenitors

Gioele La Manno, Antonio Herrera Camacho, Leila Haj Abdullah Alieh

The central nervous system develops from a pool of neural progenitors which, depending on their location and time of division, generate cells committed to differentiate into specific kinds of neurons or glia. In the last decades, the developmental neurobio ...

The critical periods of cerebral plasticity: A key aspect in a dialog between psychoanalysis and neuroscience centered on the psychopathology of schizophrenia

Pierre Magistretti

Through research into the molecular and cellular mechanisms that occur during critical periods, recent experimental neurobiological data have brought to light the importance of early childhood. These have demonstrated that childhood and early environmental ...

The CT-cube: A framework for the design and the assessment of computational thinking activities

Francesco Mondada, Alberto Piatti, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy

Computational thinking is a fundamental competence that is being introduced in K-12 and succeeding curricula worldwide. Despite this huge effort, many computational thinking models in the literature do not explicitly take into consideration the pupils’ age ...

Early life adoption shows rearing environment supersedes transgenerational effects of paternal stress on aggressive temperament in the offspring

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Guillaume Poirier, Sonakshi Gupta

Prenatal experience and transgenerational influences are increasingly recognized as critical for defining the socio-emotional system, through the development of social competences and of their underlying neural circuitries. Here, we used an established rat ...

Long-term effects of early treatment with SSRIs on cognition and brain development in individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

Maude Schneider, Marie Schaer, Karin Bortolin

Cognitive deficits in individuals at risk of psychosis represent a significant challenge for research, as current strategies for symptomatic treatment are often ineffective. Recent studies showed that atypical cognitive development predicts the occurrence ...

Comparative Transcriptomics Analyses across Species, Organs, and Developmental Stages Reveal Functionally Constrained lncRNAs

Fabrice Daniel Darbellay, Anamaria Necsulea

The functionality of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) is disputed. In general, lncRNAs are under weak selective pressures, suggesting that the majority of lncRNAs may be nonfunctional. However, although some surveys showed negligible phenotypic effects upon l ...

How ageing shapes body and space representations: A comparison study between healthy young and older adults

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Michela Bassolino, Matteo Franza, Giuliana Sorrentino, Charlène Zuber

To efficiently interact with the external world, the brain needs to represent the size of the involved body parts - body representations (BR) - and the space around the body in which the interactions with the environment take place - peripersonal space rep ...

Gene expression across mammalian organ development

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Ioannis Xenarios

The evolution of gene expression in mammalian organ development remains largely uncharacterized. Here we report the transcriptomes of seven organs (cerebrum, cerebellum, heart, kidney, liver, ovary and testis) across developmental time points from early or ...
