Decoding the Smooth Brain: Scientists Uncover Cellular Mechanisms Behind Primate Brain Evolution

Most primates are characterized by their expansive, complex brains, which are typically defined by a surface topography of intricate folds and grooves. This architectural complexity is often cited as the biological foundation for the sophisticated cognitive abilities observed across the primate order. However, the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) stands out as a striking evolutionary anomaly.…

Why Some Primate Brains Are Smooth: New Research Uncovers the Cellular "Brakes" on Brain Growth

Most primates possess brains that are marvels of biological engineering, characterized by large volumes and intricate patterns of folds and grooves—a hallmark of evolutionary complexity. However, the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus), a small South American monkey, presents a striking evolutionary exception. Its brain is remarkably smooth, lacking the extensive folding found in its larger-brained primate…
