Differences and similarities between human and chimpanzee neural progenitors during cerebral cortex development

Differences and similarities between human and chimpanzee neural progenitors during cerebral cortex development

Human neocortex expansion likely contributed to the remarkable cognitive abilities of humans. This expansion is thought to primarily reflect differences in proliferation versus differentiation of neural progenitors during cortical development. Here, we have searched for such differences by analysing...
