A recent Penn Medicine study found that brain development does not take place consistently throughout the entire brain. It follows a recently discovered developmental progression. Young people are susceptible to socioeconomic situations until adolescence because brain regions that support cognitive, social, and emotional functions seem to retain their ability to change, adapt, and remodel longer than other brain regions.
Researchers charted how developmental processes unfold across the human brain from the ages of 8 to 23 years old through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The findings indicate a new approach to understanding the order in which individual brain regions show reductions in plasticity during development.
