Learning to remember: The early ontogeny of episodic memory [PDF]
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2014 Over the past 60 years the neural correlates of human episodic memory have been the focus of intense neuroscientific scrutiny. By contrast, neuroscience has paid substantially less attention to understanding the emergence of this neurocognitive system ...

Ontogeny of early life immunity [PDF]
Trends in Immunology, 2014 The human immune system comprises cellular and molecular components designed to coordinately prevent infection while avoiding potentially harmful inflammation and autoimmunity. Immunity varies with age, reflecting unique age-dependent challenges including fetal gestation, the neonatal phase, and infancy.

Prenatal hypoxia alters the early ontogeny of dopamine neurons [PDF]
Translational Psychiatry, 2022 Dopaminergic (DA) dysfunction is a significant feature in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Established developmental risk factors for schizophrenia such as maternal immune activation (MIA) or developmental vitamin D (DVD) deficiency, when modelled ...

Dental ontogeny in pliocene and early pleistocene hominins.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Until recently, our understanding of the evolution of human growth and development derived from studies of fossil juveniles that employed extant populations for both age determination and comparison.

Early Ontogeny of Cichlids Using Selected Species as Examples [PDF]
AnimalsThe purpose of this study was to characterize in detail the reproductive strategy, course of embryogenesis, and development of larvae in three species of fishes of the genus Cichlasoma: the green terror (Andinoacara rivulatus), the red discus ...

Early ontogeny social deprivation modifies future agonistic behaviour in crayfish [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 Social deprivation early in life affects further individual development and leads to irreversible behavioural alterations later in life. Although the syndrome is well-studied in vertebrates including humans, its presence in invertebrates has been ...

Acetaldehyde involvement in ethanol’s postabsortive effects during early ontogeny
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2013 Clinical and biomedical studies sustains the notion that early ontogeny is a vulnerable window to the impact of alcohol. Experiences with the drug during these stages increase latter disposition to prefer, use or abuse ethanol.

The Early Ontogeny of Reason Giving [PDF]
Child Development Perspectives, 2020 Abstract The key context within which preschool children learn to justify beliefs with reasons is collaborative problem-solving and decision-making with peers, including in the moral domain, in which they engage with another coequal mind in a cooperative spirit.

Postcranial osteology of the first early-stage juvenile skeleton of Plateosaurus trossingensis from the Norian of Frick, Switzerland [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 Owing to monospecific mass-accumulation sites in Central Europe, the early-branching sauropodomorph Plateosaurus has one of the best fossil records among dinosaurs. Despite this, early-stage juveniles have been conspicuously absent.

Deciphering the morphological variation and its ontogenetic dynamics in the Late Devonian conodont Icriodus alternatus [PDF]
Fossil Record, 2022 Identification of relevant taxonomic and evolutionary units is a recurrent issue in the fossil record, and all the more for ancient fossils devoid of modern equivalents such as conodonts. Extensive morphological variation has often led to the description
