A developmental perspective on the evolution of the nervous system [PDF]
Developmental Biology, 2021 The evolution of nervous systems in animals has always fascinated biologists, and thus multiple evolutionary scenarios have been proposed to explain the appearance of neurons and complex neuronal centers. However, the absence of a robust phylogenetic framework for animal interrelationships, the lack of a mechanistic understanding of development, and a ...

Evolution of cephalopod nervous systems
Current Biology, 2023Giant brains have independently evolved twice on this planet, in vertebrates and in cephalopods (Figure 1A). Thus, the brains and nervous systems of cephalopods provide an important counterpoint to vertebrates in the search for generalities of brain organization and function.

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 1991
Evolution is the unifying theme of biological thought. It is therefore surprising that until recently it has little shaped the ideas of those who have sought principles among the cells and circuits of nervous systems. After relegation to an historic approach for many decades, an evolutionary perspective in neuroscience has revived, armed now with ...

The origin and evolution of chordate nervous systems [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015 In the past 40 years, comparisons of developmental gene expression and mechanisms of development (evodevo) joined comparative morphology as tools for reconstructing long-extinct ancestral forms. Unfortunately, both approaches typically give congruent answers only with closely related organisms. Chordate nervous systems are good examples.

Evolution of the Nervous System in Fishes
2007The notion of a linear Scala naturae in vertebrate brain evolution meanwhile has been replaced by the phyletic (cladistic) method of establishing ancestral and derived brain characters. From this analysis, a Bauplan or morphotype of the vertebrate brain emerges which exhibits many common ancestral neural traits (e.g., cranial nerves, brain subdivisions)
