• Gut-resident microorganisms and their genes are associated with cognition and neuroanatomy in children 

      Bonham, Kevin S.; Fahur Bottino, Guilherme; McCann, Shelley Hoeft; Beauchemin, Jennifer; Weisse, Elizabeth; Barry, Fatoumata; Cano Lorente, Rosa; Huttenhower, Curtis; Bruchhage, Muriel Marisa Katharina; D'Sa, Viren; Deoni, Sean; Klepac-Ceraj, Vanja (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Emerging evidence implicates gut microbial metabolism in neurodevelopmental disorders, but its influence on typical neurodevelopment has not been explored in detail. We investigated the relationship between the microbiome ...
    • Network evolution of regional brain volumes in young children reflects neurocognitive scores and mother's education 

      Zhou, Yidong; Müller, Hans-Georg; Zhu, Changbo; Chen, Yaqing; Wang, Jane-Ling; O'Muircheartaigh, Jonathan; Bruchhage, Muriel Marisa Katharina; Deoni, Sean (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The maturation of regional brain volumes from birth to preadolescence is a critical developmental process that underlies emerging brain structural connectivity and function. Regulated by genes and environment, the coordinated ...
    • Trajectories of brain volumes in young children are associated with maternal education 

      Zhu, Changbo; Chen, Yaqing; Müller, Hans-Georg; Wang, Jane-Ling; O'Muircheartaigh, Jonathan; Bruchhage, Muriel Marisa Katharina; Deoni, Sean (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-03)
      Brain growth in early childhood is reflected in the evolution of proportional cerebrospinal fluid volumes (pCSF), grey matter (pGM), and white matter (pWM). We study brain development as reflected in the relative fractions ...
