Histological evidence suggests that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is accompanied by a reduced integrity of the grey-white matter boundary. This has also recently been confirmed by a structural neuroimaging study in vivo reporting significantly reduced grey-white matter tissue contrast (GWC) in adult individuals (18-42 years of age) with ASD relative to typically developing (TD) controls. However, it remains unknown whether the neuroanatomical differences in ASD at the grey-white matter boundary are stable across development or are age-dependent.

Open source software suite for processing and analyzing human brain MRI images. Used for reconstruction of brain cortical surface from structural MRI data, and overlay of functional MRI data onto reconstructed surface. Contains automatic structural imaging stream for processing cross sectional and longitudinal data. Provides anatomical analysis tools, including: representation of cortical surface between white and gray matter, representation of the pial surface, segmentation of white matter from rest of brain, skull stripping, B1 bias field correction, nonlinear registration of cortical surface of individual with stereotaxic atlas, labeling of regions of cortical surface, statistical analysis of group morphometry differences, and labeling of subcortical brain structures.Operating System: Linux, macOS.

View all literature mentionsThe department of Neuroscience was founded in 2001, resulting from a merger between the Physiology and Anatomy department. In 2008, the BNT department joined forces. At present we consist of about 150 people. Our research is dedicated to Plasticity and Dynamics of Sensori-Motor Systems, which we investigate at the physiological, anatomical end molecular level in 18 different research groups. We have teaching responsibilities within the whole bachelor's phase of the medical curriculum at the Erasmus MC, teaching both basic anatomy and physiology, as well as neuroscience. The department hosts its own Master of Neuroscience program. The department of Neuroscience is embedded in the ONWAR, Helmholtz, and MGC research school
