A unique opportunity to understand genetic determinants of cognition is offered by Williams
syndrome (WS), a well-characterized hemideletion on chromosome 7q11.23 that causes …

Although gyral and sulcal patterns are highly heritable, and emerge in a tightly controlled
sequence during development, very little is known about specific genetic contributions to …

Searching for a neurobiological understanding of human intellectual capabilities has long
occupied those very capabilities. Brain gyrification, or folding of the cortex, is as highly evolved …

Before their disappearance from the fossil record approximately 40,000 years ago, Neanderthals,
the ancient hominin lineage most closely related to modern humans, interbred with …

Little is known about genetic regulation of the development of white matter. This knowledge
is critical in understanding the pathophysiology of neurodevelopmental syndromes …

Many neuroimaging studies of single-word reading have been carried out over the last 15
years, and a consensus as to the brain regions relevant to this task has emerged. Surprisingly, …

Although it is widely accepted that genes can influence complex behavioral traits such as
human temperament, the underlying neurogenetic mechanisms remain unclear. Williams …

Distribution and transport of platelets in flowing blood were studied experimentally using
suspensions of washed red cells and fluorescent latex beads as platelet analogues. …

Schizophrenia has been hypothesized to be a human‐specific condition, but experimental
approaches to testing this idea have been limited. Because Neanderthals, our closest …

The processing of social information in the human brain is widely distributed neuroanatomically
and finely orchestrated over time. However, a detailed account of the spatiotemporal …
