A Pinellas County deputy rescued a pelican with an injured wing Thursday, and although it was his first time holding a ...

Brain-to-brain verbal communication in humans was first accomplished in 2014 when brain-computer interfaces helped transmit a ...

Complex neural circuits likely arose independently in birds and mammals, suggesting that vertebrates evolved intelligence multiple times.

“A bird with a 10-gram brain is doing pretty much the same as a chimp with a 400-gram brain,” said Onur Güntürkün, who studies brain structures at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany. “How is it ...

Another study characterized cell types in the avian brain, and used computational tools to compare this data with similar data on mammals and reptiles. Birds were found to carry the most inhibitory ...

The insult “bird brain” should probably be retired. Eurasian jays can pass the marshmallow test, some species have ”culture”, and even extinct avians like the dodo were probably smarter ...

In a nutshell Scientists have discovered that birds developed complex brain circuits independently from mammals rather than inheriting them from a common ancestor, challenging long-held beliefs ...

LEIOA, Spain — New research is turning our understanding of brain evolution on its head. Scientists have discovered that birds developed their complex brain circuits independently from mammals, rather ...

New studies show that bird and mammal brains evolved separately, with distinct genetic programs and developmental mechanisms. Researchers found that these species developed similar functions through ...

Researchers have developed a method to study bird brains by creating digital endocasts from empty cranial spaces in bird skeletons. Using this technique, they discovered that physical brain tissues ...

Prehistoric Bird Brain May Be a Rosetta Stone for Avian Evolution Learn more about Navaornis hestiae, the bird that could be a missing link to understanding how birds evolved from their prehistoric ...
