Exuberance in the development of cortical networks
Abstract
The cerebral cortex is the largest and most intricately connected part of the mammalian brain. Its size and complexity has increased during the course of evolution, allowing improvements in old functions and causing the emergence of new ones, such as language. This has expanded the behavioural and cognitive repertoire of different species and has determined their competitive success. To allow the relatively rapid emergence of large evolutionary changes in a structure of such importance and complexity, the mechanisms by which cortical circuitry develops must be flexible and yet robust against changes that could disrupt the normal functions of the networks.

The development of functional networks likely reflects programmed neurodevelopmental events.
“This intricate structural-functional interplay underscores that the ontogeny of functional networks likely reflects programmed neurodevelopmental events (e.g. neurogenesis, cell death, myelination, pruning, synaptic plasticity, and glial development) (Innocenti and Price, 2005; Stiles and Jernigan, 2010)”

The first years include widespread rapid synapse formation, then a long phase of synapse removal and cell loss that extends into adulthood.
“This same time period is marked by rapid and widespread cortical synaptogenesis, followed by a protracted period of synapse elimination and cell loss which carries into adulthood (Huttenlocher, 2002; Innocenti and Price, 2005).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
