13.01.2022 STUDY PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO HOW THE BRAIN MAY HAVE EVOLVED Our researchers have uncovered evidence of an important genetic step in the evolution of the brain. The finding highlights how genetic events that took place in our fish-like ancestors play crucial roles in human brain biology today. In a new study, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, researchers found that non-CG DNA methylation, an epigenetic control system found abundantly in human brains, first made an appear...ance in the earliest vertebrate animals.
