The cerebellum has long been considered a late-maturing structure subordinate to neocortical development, therefore its potential role as an early driver of cortical organization remains largely unexplored. Using two large longitudinal neuroimaging cohorts of developing children together with lesion experiments in mice, we show that early cerebellar morphology may drive neocortical maturation in a regionally specific manner. These cross-species findings implicate the cerebellum as a possible regulator of neocortical organization.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
