Human brain evolution: from gene discovery to phenotype discovery.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 26 Jun 2012

Preuss Todd M

Abstract excerpt

The rise of comparative genomics and related technologies has added important new dimensions to the study of human evolution. Our knowledge of the genes that underwent expression changes or were targets of positive selection in human evolution is rapidly increasing, as is our knowledge of gene duplications, translocations, and deletions. It is now clear that the genetic differences between humans and chimpanzees...
