Delighted to have this out as a preprint! Thanks to all authors, especially @estherkli.bsky.social and @djabaudon.bsky.social for leading the work. If you are interested in how conserved genes played a part in evolving human brains, give it a read!

✨ We tend to think of species-specific differences as resulting from the presence of species-specific genes. In our latest work with @djabaudon.bsky.social, we show that building brains is not only about which genes you use, but also about when and where you do.
