Unlocking Intelligence: Marmosets Reveal Hidden Secrets of Human Brain Evolution

Researchers have uncovered how social interactions influence brain development in common marmosets, drawing parallels with human evolution. The study reveals that brain regions involved in social processing mature slowly, mirroring the development seen in humans. This protracted brain maturation supports prolonged learning from social interactions, underlying the advanced socio-cognitive skills observed in these primates. Primate [...]
