Brain structure and function: a multidisciplinary pipeline to study hominoid brain evolution. [PDF]
Front Integr Neurosci, 2023 To decipher the evolution of the hominoid brain and its functions, it is essential to conduct comparative studies in primates, including our closest living relatives. However, strong ethical concerns preclude in vivo neuroimaging of great apes.

On the Evolution of the Mammalian Brain [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016 Hobson and Friston have hypothesized that the brain must actively dissipate heat in order to process information (Hobson et al., 2014). This physiologic trait is functionally homologous with the first instantation of life formed by lipids suspended in water forming micelles- allowing the reduction in entropy (heat dissipation).

The Ferret as a Model System for Neocortex Development and Evolution
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 The neocortex is the largest part of the cerebral cortex and a key structure involved in human behavior and cognition. Comparison of neocortex development across mammals reveals that the proliferative capacity of neural stem and progenitor cells and the ...
