A diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based template-free cortical connectome study of brain maturation
A template-free ‘‘baby connectome’’ study mapping brain networks in premature neonates, term-born neonates, six-month-old infants, and adults.

Improved understanding of how the human brain is "wired" on a macroscale may now be possible due to the emerging field of MRI connectomics.
