Cortically evoked motor responses in patients with Xp22.3-linked Kallmann's syndrome and in female gene carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Patients with Kallmann's syndrome show hypothalamic hypogonadism, hyposmia, and congenital mirror movements. As a correlate, a defect of gonadotropic neuron migration into the brain was recently detected. Considering abnormal outgrowth of neurons also as

Evolution of the base of the brain in highly encephalized human species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The increase of brain size relative to body size-encephalization-is intimately linked with human evolution. However, two genetically different evolutionary lineages, Neanderthals and modern humans, have produced similarly large-brained human species ...
