This research reveals white matter tract maturation in macaques, highlighting changes in long- and short-range connections.
Key Points
The study reveals comprehensive maturation of both long- and short-range white matter tracts in the macaque brain, advancing neuroscience.
Utilizing ultra-high-resolution diffusion MRI, the research delineates various white matter tracts across neonate, early childhood, and adult macaque stages.
Advanced tractography techniques facilitate detailed insights into differential microstructural changes within developing white matter tracts.
The findings underscore important maturation processes in macaque brain development that may inform comparative studies with other primate species.
