Y1 - 2023 N1 - T2 - Timor's Ultrasonography of the Prenatal Brain, 4e AB - The brain is fascinating, powerful, and mysterious. Complex molecular symphonies play constantly to orchestrate unconscious functions as well as thoughts and emotions, in a word, consciousness. I can see how Ernst Haeckel would be seduced to believe that the long evolutionary road of the brain during phylogeny is recapitulated during embryonic and fetal life. Development is rapid, complicated, and is incompletely understood. Therefore, to look at the developing fetal brain and attempt to predict neurologic and cognitive function is an extraordinary challenge.
