(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
Emotional disorders commonly emerge in adolescence, a period characterized by changes in emotion-related processes. Thus, the ability to regulate emotions is crucial for well-being and adaptive social functioning during ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
Cognitive control enables goal-oriented adaptation to a fast-changing environment and has a protracted development spanning into young adulthood. The neurocognitive processes underlying this development are poorly understood. ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
Prosocial behavior, or voluntary actions that intentionally benefit others, relate to desirable developmental outcomes such as peer acceptance, while lack of prosocial behavior has been associated with several neurodevelopmental ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
Detecting errors and adjusting behaviour appropriately are fundamental cognitive abilities that are known to improve through adolescence. The cognitive and neural processes underlying this development, however, are still ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
Human brain structure topography is thought to be related in part to functional specialization. However, the extent of such relationships is unclear. Here, using a data-driven, multimodal approach for studying brain structure ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
Seminal human brain histology work has demonstrated developmental waves of myelination. Here, using a micro-structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) marker linked to myelin, we studied fine-grained age differences to ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
Intellectual abilities are supported by a large-scale fronto-parietal brain network distributed across both cerebral hemispheres. This bihemispheric network suggests a functional relevance of inter-hemispheric coordination, ...

Basic perspective taking and mentalizing abilities develop in childhood, but recent studies indicate that the use of social perspective taking to guide decisions and actions has a prolonged development that continues ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
Working memory capacity is pivotal for a broad specter of cognitive tasks and develops throughout childhood. This must in part rely on development of neural connections and white matter microstructure maturation, but there ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
How personality traits relate to structural brain changes in development is an important but understudied question. In this study, cortical thickness (CT) and surface area (SA), estimated using magnetic resonance imaging ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
Cortical surface area has tremendously expanded during human evolution, and similar patterns of cortical expansion have been observed during childhood development. An intriguing hypothesis is that the high-expanding cortical ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is regarded a human-specific condition, and it has been suggested that brain regions highly expanded in humans compared with other primates are selectively targeted. We calculated shared and unique ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
There is a growing realization that early life influences have lasting impact on brain function and structure. Recent research has demon- strated that genetic relationships in adults can be used to parcellate the cortex ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)
The hippocampus supports several important cognitive functions known to undergo substantial development during childhood and adolescence, for example, encoding and consolidation of vivid personal memories. However, diverging ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)
Human cortical thickness and surface area are genetically independent, emerge through different neurobiological events during development, and are sensitive to different clinical conditions. However, the relationship between ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)
Purpose of review: Thorough knowledge of normal neural foundations for cognitive behavioral development is fundamental to understand the mechanisms of both neurodevelopmental disorders and normal adaptation. This review ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)
The hippocampus is an anatomically and functionally heterogeneous structure, but longitudinal studies of its regional development are scarce and it is not known whether protracted maturation of the hippocampus in adolescence ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
To realize our goals we continuously adapt our behavior according to internal or external feedback. Errors provide an important source for such feedback and elicit a scalp electrical potential referred to as the error-related ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Parallels between patterns of brain maturation and cognitive development have been observed repeatedly, but studies directly testing the relationships between improvements in specific cognitive functions and structural ...
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Cerebral myelin maturation and aging-related degradation constitute fundamental features of human brain integrity and functioning. Although mostly studied in the white matter, the cerebral cortex contains significant amounts ...
