Title: Structured Spontaneity: Building Circuits in the Human Prenatal Brain.

Authors: Thomason, Moriah E

Published In Trends Neurosci, (2018 Jan)

Abstract: Early brain activity is crucial for neurogenesis and the development of brain networks. However, it has been challenging to localize regions in the developing human brain that contribute to spontaneous waves of neuronal activity. Recently, Arichi and colleagues reported that the temporal and heteromodal insular cortices have a central role in propagating these neural instructional signals.
