人类未成熟大脑皮层的形态计量学研究表明，发育变化一直延续到青春期。树突和突触连接的生长发生在婴儿期和幼儿期。过多的突触连接在童年后期被消除。发生在婴儿期的旺盛的连接可能形成神经可塑性和某些类型的早期学习的解剖学基础。
Morphometric studies of immature cerebral cortex in humans show developmental changes extending up to the time of adolescence. Growth of dendrites and of synaptic connections occurs during infancy and early childhood. Excess synaptic connections are eliminated during later childhood years. The exuberant connections that occur during infancy may form the anatomical substrate for neural plasticity and for certain types of early learning.
