- The early development of brain white matter: a review of imaging studies in fetuses, newborns and infants. (2014, background): “For instance, the fiber myelination in the somatosensory, motor, frontopolar and visual neocortices is delayed in humans compared with chimpanzees, with slower myelination during childhood extending beyond late adolescence (Miller et al., 2012).”
- The Cellular and Molecular Landscapes of the Developing Human Central Nervous System (2016, positive): “The generation of glial cells generally follows neurogenesis, peaking around birth, and is also a protracted postnatal process in humans (Jakovcevski et al., 2009; Miller et al., 2012; O'Rourke et al., 1992; Roessmann and Gambetti, 1986; Yeung et al., 2014).”
- Trajectories of cortical thickness maturation in normal brain development – The importance of quality control procedures (2015, neutral): “For instance,while thenumber of brain synapses peaks at around 3 years of age, there is still ongoing development of dendrites in childhood (Miller et al., 2012).”
- Brain Plasticity and Human Evolution (2017, positive): “…opportunity for environment-dependent brain maturation in adolescence and early adulthood, during which important processes, such as myelination (Miller et al. 2012) and continued developmental pruning of synaptic spines on pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex (Petanjek et al. 2011), are…”
