Timeline

Can anyone help with a timeline for completion of synaptic development in humans at the end of "adolescence"? I have found this: http://www.mybrainfacts.com/cont01/017.html but it is a little hazy about the "pruning" stage and when this is completed or how we might determine the change points between 1. the "mass" pruning I think the article is referring to, 2. the "finalization" of "adolescent" pruning", and 2. the "ongoing" generation/pruning of mature adulthood. This article http://www.fcs.uga.edu/ext/bbb/brainTimeAdolescence.php suggests: "Myelination of the frontal lobes is not complete until very late in adolescence. Some researchers estimate that frontal-lobe development continues until age 25 to 30."

Move

Suggest moving this page to Development of the nervous sytem - almost all if not all, is copied from the page. Target page is more comprehensive. --Iztwoz (talk) 09:19, 3 March 2019 (UTC) [reply]
