and its Relations to Early Childhood Brain Development There has been increasing evidence that environmental factors play an important role in the process of gene expression (Fox‚ Levitt & Nelson‚ 2010). These experiences can enhance or inhibit neural connectivity in what is called sensitive periods (key developmental stages) that in return can have a relation with brain development. Moreover‚ this paper will present how early experiences can influence the brain architecture. Specifically‚ the effects
