Research on the lamprey brain has enabled scientists to push the birth of the cortex back in time by some 300 million years to over 500 million years ago, providing new insights into brain evolution. “That vital parts of the lamprey brain are conserved and organized in the same way as in the human brain was unexpected,” he continues. “These findings are crucial to our understanding of how the brain evolved and how it has been designed through evolution.”
