The cerebral cortex that is reading this sentence (yours, to be explicit) did not come out of nowhere. It has evolved over hundreds of millions of years... To study this evolutionary process, we decided to focus on non-avian reptiles for our new paper in Cerebral Cortex 🐢🦎🧠 🧵

A human-specific enhancer fine-tunes radial glia potency and corticogenesis - Nature
HARE5, a human accelerated region enhancer, modulates cortical development by influencing neural progenitor cell behaviour, leading to an enlarged neocortex with increased functional independence between cortical regions through amplified WNT signalling.

Evolutionary convergence of sensory circuits in the pallium of amniotes
The amniote pallium contains sensory circuits that are structurally and functionally equivalent, yet their evolutionary relationship remains unresolved. We used birthdating analysis, single-cell RNA a...
