Cortical surface area, thalamic nuclei volume, and associations with neurocognitive functioning in 6–13-year-old children born late preterm and full term

Background: Late preterm (LP) children (34 0/7 - 36 6/7 weeks of gestation) are at risk for neurocognitive challenges, yet the neuroanatomic and functional disruptions underlying these developmental differences remain poorly understood. Purpose or Hypothesis: Investigate (1) regional differences in cortical surface are...
