Highlights • Some brain regions are highly connected, acting as network hubs.• Structural hubs are present in an adult spatial configuration from birth.• Functional hubs emerge in primary areas and shift to association areas during childhood.• Hub connectivity, especially of frontal areas, strengthens from birth to adulthood.• Methodological differences across studies can lead to inconsistent findings.
