Genetic correlates of evolutionary adaptations in cognitive functional brain networks and their relationship to human cognitive functioning and disease

2019-06-21

Abstract excerpt

Cognitive functional networks such as the default-mode network (DMN), frontal-parietal network (FPN), and salience network (SN), are key networks of the human brain. Here, we show that the distinct rapid evolutionary cortical expansion of cognitive networks in the human brain, and most pronounced the DMN, runs parallel with high expression of genes important for human evolution (so-called HAR genes). Comparative g...
