Myelination of axons in the central nervous system is critical for human cognition and behavior. The predominant protein in myelin is proteolipid protein—making PLP1, the gene that encodes for proteolipid protein, one of the primary candidate genes for white matter structure in the human brain. Here, we investigated the relation of genetic variation within PLP1 and white matter microstructure as assessed...
A general correlation exists between brain weight and higher cognitive ability in birds and mammals. In birds this relationship is especially evident in corvids. These animals are well-known for their flexible behavior and problem-solving abilities, and have relatively large brains associated with a pallial enlargement. At the behavioral level, New Caledonian crows stand out amongst corvids because...
