Cranial endocast of Anagale gobiensis (Anagalidae) and its implications for early brain evolution in Euarchontoglires / López-Torres, Sergi (New York Consortium in Evolutionary Primatology) ; Bertrand, Ornella C.

Anagalids are an extinct group of primitive mammals from the Asian Palaeogene thought to be possible basal members of Glires. Anagalid material is rare, with only a handful of crania known. Here we describe the first virtual endocast of an anagalid, based on the holotype of Anagale gobiensis (AMNH 26079; late Eocene, China), which allows for comparison with published endocasts from fossil members of modern euarchontogliran lineages (i.

The relationship between human brain connectomics and genetic evolutionary traits remains elusive due to the inherent challenges in combining complex associations within cerebral tissue. In this study, insights are provided about the relationship between connectomics, gene expression and divergent evolutionary pathways from non-human primates to humans. [...]

16 p, 1.3 MB Nothing in Cognitive Neuroscience Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution / Vilarroya Oliver, Óscar (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Psiquiatria i de Medicina Legal)
Evolutionary theory should be a fundamental guide for neuroscientists. This would seem a trivial statement, but I believe that taking it seriously is more complicated than it appears to be, as I argue in this article. [...]

27 p, 1.5 MB Relative brain size and its relation with the associative pallium in birds / Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Lefebvre, Louis (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Despite growing interest in the evolution of enlarged brains, the biological significance of brain size variation remains controversial. Much of the controversy is over the extent to which brain structures have evolved independently of each other (mosaic evolution) or in a coordinated way (concerted evolution). [...]

8 p, 473.7 KB Evolutionary divergence in brain size between migratory and resident birds / Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Garcia-Forner, Núria (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Iwaniuk, Andrew (Canadian Centre for Behavioural Neuroscience) ; Davis, Katie (University of Reading. School of Biological Sciences) ; Meade, Andrew (University of Glasgow. Division of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology) ; Boyle, W. Alice (University of Western Ontario. Department of Biology) ; Székely, Tasmás (University of Bath. Department of Biology and Biochemistry)
Despite important recent progress in our understanding of brain evolution, controversy remains regarding the evolutionary forces that have driven its enormous diversification in size. Here, we report that in passerine birds, migratory species tend to have brains that are substantially smaller (relative to body size) than those of resident species, confirming and generalizing previous studies.
