Modern humans, Neanderthals, and other recent relatives on our human family tree evolved bigger brains much more rapidly than earlier species, a new study of human brain evolution has found. The study ...

The longer the thumb, the bigger the brain, evolution study suggests By Pranjal Malewar September 07, 2025 The research found the bigger a primate's brain the longer its thumbs were, affirming a ...

A new Yale study provides a fuller picture of the genetic changes that shaped the evolution of the human brain, and how the process differed from the evolution of chimpanzees. For the study, published ...

A part of the brain called the pallium is responsible for many complex functions. In mammals, the pallium is thought to be where the neocortex forms, and gives rise to the cerebral cortex and ...

3.The Spatial Intelligence Layer (The Phygital Scenarios): Serving as the "meta-world" where intelligent evolution occurs, it functions as both a high-fidelity virtual training ground and a ...
