The style of embryonic development in the lingulids has changed through time; that of Recent lingulids is not primitive for the group. The shell of Devonian lingulids consists of two valves already at the embryonic stage, whereas in Recent lingulids the protegulum originates as a single plate...
which is a specific feature of all mammals. In humans, ~90% of the cerebral cortex is neocortex. Over the course of evolution, the human cerebral cortex attained the largest number of neurons among primates (16.3 billion), which is thought to be the dominant contributor to underlying human i...
pluripotent stem cells, we show that the reorganization of the embryonic lineage is mediated by cellular polarization leading to cavity formation. Together, our results indicate that the critical remodelling events at this stage of human development are embryo-autonomous, highlighting the remarkable and ...

ontogenetic patterns (size increase and shape change) in fossil hominins and their evolutionary change on the other hand. Tightly integrating our knowledge on these different levels will be the key of future work on the evolution of human brain development....

2. Morphology of the developing heart and cardiac evolution Hearts of all chordates are formed from the embryonic disk, where lateral cardiogenic mesoderm comes together ventrally on the embryonic midline to create the heart tube. The heart tube subsequently loops and a ventricle and an atrium ball...
Through the evolution of novel wing structures, bats (Order Chiroptera) became the only mammalian group to achieve powered flight. This achievement preceded the massive adaptive radiation of bats into diverse ecological niches. We investigate some of the
In this paper, we advance a new model of music evolution that builds on the self-domestication view of human evolution, according to which the human phenotype is, at least in part, the outcome of a process similar to domestication in other mammals, triggered by the reduction in reactive ...
