Why is human brain development, and particularly neuron morphogenesis, so slow and how is this linked to evolution? doi.org/10.1101/2024.12.28.630576
We developed mouse brain organoid methods capturing differences to human and used these to address this. doi.org/10.1101/2024.12.21.629881

Calcium dynamics tune developmental tempo to generate evolutionarily divergent axon tract lengths
The considerably slow pace of human brain development correlates with an evolutionary increase in brain size, cell numbers, and expansion of neuronal structures, with axon tracts undergoing an even gr...
