Abstract
EDITORIAL article Front. Syst. Neurosci., 11 August 2010 https://doi.org/10.3389/fnsys.2010.00037
Highlights
The low cognitive demand and relatively short duration of Resting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) scans make them well suited for studying pediatric and clinical populations with low tolerance for the MRI scanner environment
The review by Uddin et al (2010) summarizes rsfMRI studies to date in children and adolescents, and describes new insights that have emerged about the typical and atypical development of functional brain networks, a topic examined in an empirical study by Littow et al (2010)
A number of important clinical applications are already emerging as emphasized by the studies of functional connectivity in premature children (Damaraju et al, 2010), adolescents with schizotypal traits (Lagioia et al, 2010), major depression (Horn et al, 2010), and aging (Langan et al, 2010)

The review by Uddin et al (2010) summarizes rsfMRI studies to date in children and adolescents, and describes new insights that have emerged about the typical and atypical development of functional brain networks, a topic examined in an empirical study by Littow et al (2010). A number of important clinical applications are already emerging as emphasized by the studies of functional connectivity in premature children (Damaraju et al, 2010), adolescents with schizotypal traits (Lagioia et al, 2010), major depression (Horn et al, 2010), and aging (Langan et al, 2010).
