The cerebral cortex that is reading this sentence (yours, to be explicit) did not come out of nowhere. It has evolved over hundreds of millions of years... To study this evolutionary process, we decided to focus on non-avian reptiles for our new paper in Cerebral Cortex 🐢🦎🧠 🧵

The Receptor group led by Prof. Nicola Palomero-Gallagher at the C. & O. Vogt Institute for Brain Research, @HHU_de, and @fz_juelich has mapped the cellular and neurotransmitter receptor organisation of the macaque cingulate cortex, a brain region involved in emotion, motivation, decision-making and motor control.

Our new open-access paper on #dinosaur #BrainEvolution is out in @eLife today. We use CT imaging and 3-D shape analysis to show that unique allometric and integration trends dictate avian brain evolution and development.

Excellent piece by Sherman and Usrey on brain evolution. Unfortunately it emphasizes "cortical control" and misses the opportunity to discuss how *integration* across the neuroaxis has been a major theme too.
