Using resting - state MRI analysis on thousands of people's brains around the world, the research has found that the areas of the brain which are associated with learning and
development show high levels of variability, meaning that they change their
neural connections with other parts of the brain
more frequently, over a matter of minutes or seconds.

A basic tenet of
neural development is that young neurons make far
more connections than they will actually use, with very little specificity.

more elaborate brains than mice, and it could suggest ways to treat disorders such as autism and epilepsy that arise from abnormal
neural development.
In studies of
neural development in mice, Stahl found that TRNP1 produces a protein that determines whether
neural stem cells self - replicate, leading to a balloonlike expansion of cortical surface area, or whether they differentiate into a plethora of intermediate stem cell types and neurons, thickening the cortex and forming
more complex brain structures.
Studies of early
development in fishes show that
neural networks in the brain controlling the
more complex vocal and pectoral mechanisms of social signalling among birds and mammals have their ancestral origins in a single compartment of the hindbrain in fishes.

In summary, greater early phase
neural drive (and increased rate of force
development),
more suppressed co-activation, and greater co-ordination might all be achievable with (light load) velocity - focused training, compared to (heavy load) force - focused training, suggesting that each could contribute to velocity - specificity.

more common among pregnant women and it is very dangerous for both fetus
development (may lead to
neural tube damage in fetus) and pregnant woman (neurological damage, fatigue, etc.).
Impaired CCF
