Two studies published in the latest issue of Science have revealed that birds, reptiles, and mammals have developed complex ...

An international research team led by Karolinska Institutet has mapped the early genetic development of the brain and can now present an atlas of embryonic development between weeks six and 13.

Scientists found that evolution led bird and mammal brains to evolve separately, using different genetic instructions.

New studies show that bird and mammal brains evolved separately, with distinct genetic programs and developmental mechanisms.

Scientists found that fruit fly embryos can develop through multiple genetic paths, not just one. This challenges traditional ideas.

Lissencephaly is a devastating genetic disease of children that affects the embryonic development of the brain. It is caused by haploinsufficiency of the Lis1 gene product, which seems to be ...

New research has revealed that birds, reptiles, and mammals have developed complex brain circuits independently, despite sharing a common ancestor. These findings challenge the traditional view of ...
