Developmental decorrelation of local cortical activity through adolescence supports high-dimensional encoding and working memory
Adolescence is a key period for the maturation of cognitive control during which cortical circuitry is refined through processes such as synaptic prun…

A recent bright spot: I have a short story about the surrealities of parenthood in the new issue of @mcsweeneys.net . Very grateful to Rita Bullwinkel and everyone at McSweeney's for giving "Playspace" such a beautiful home.

Cortical maturation unfolds hierarchically, endowing the PFC with extended plasticity. But do timeframes of plasticity vary across PFC layers?
With 7T quantitative myelin imaging, EEG, and cognitive data, we uncover heterochronous laminar maturation in the PFC 1/n. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

There's lots of disagreement about when adolescence starts and ends (in part because there are such individual differences). Cool new study suggests that, in terms of executive functioning at least, adolescence roughly = age 10-20 years
Now available at Nature Communications!
When do adolescents reach adult levels of executive function? We used FOUR independent datasets (N>10,000), behavioral data from 17 distinct EF tasks, and nonlinear modeling to address this and related questions.
