Abstract
It is well known that the human cortex is expanded compared with other mammalian species, but the molecular mechanisms underpinning the evolution of human corticogenesis are not well understood. A new paper in Development takes a novel computational approach to screen for genetic changes that could have played an important role in human brain evolution. To learn more about the story behind the paper, we caught up with first author Juan Moriano and corresponding author Cedric Boeckx, a Research Professor at Catalan Institute for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA).
