What Makes Us Human? New Genetic Comparison Technique Reveals Evolution of the Human Brain and Face – Brinkwire

New genetic comparison technique developed at Stanford enables meticulous study of evolution of the human brain and face.
In separate studies, researchers compared gene regulation related to brain and face development in humans and chimpanzees using a new technique.
In both cases, they discovered new genetic differences between these species.
One of the best ways to study human evolution is by comparing us with nonhuman species that, evolutionarily speaking, are closely related to us.
That closeness…
