Humans and chimpanzees share more than 95% of our genome, and yet we are remarkably different. A new study highlights the ...

While humans and chimpanzees share many genes, alterations in gene activity may account for distinctive features of the human ...

A study comparing human, chimpanzee, and macaque brains reveals significant differences in gene expression, particularly in ...

Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

Chimpanzees have long been observed using various stone tools. Biologists and anthropologists view tool usage as a key indicator of brain and cognitive development in animal species. Oldowan ...

Did you know your brain burns 20 to 25 percent of your blood sugar? Discover how balancing it can boost your brain, fight aging, and cut dementia risk.

The human brain is up to three times larger in volume than the brains of chimpanzees, gorillas and many extinct human relatives. Brain size is tightly correlated with body size in most animals.

Chimpanzees bear genetic adaptations that help them thrive in their different forest and savannah habitats, some of which may protect against malaria, according to a study by an international team.

Previous research has found differences in gene expression between humans and chimpanzees, and that human cells tend to have higher gene expression, but the picture was blurry. The brain is made ...
