Deciphering the Blueprint: Why Marmoset Brains Lack the Folds of Human Complexity
Most primates are characterized by their expansive, highly complex brains, often described as possessing a surface marked by a dense topography of folds and grooves. This intricate architecture, known as gyrencephaly, is a hallmark of primate evolution, allowing for the massive expansion of the cerebral cortex—the seat of higher cognitive function—within the confines of the…
