Development and emergence of functional network asymmetry in 3- to 9-month-old infants.

Cerebral asymmetry is a cardinal feature of functional organization in the human brain and an important biomarker of successful brain development. Studies have demonstrated that functional network asymmetries across hemispheres undergo significant development through childhood and adulthood. However, it remains unknown when such asymmetries of functional networks emerge and how they develop across the early months of infancy.
