R_3_07 — Embryology and Morphogenesis: How Bodies Take Shape

Embryology — the study of how a single fertilized cell becomes a complex multicellular organism — is one of biology's most profound mysteries. From the discovery by Karl Ernst von Baer (1828) that embryos of different sp

R_2_01 — Human Brain Evolution and the Cognitive Revolution

The human brain tripled in size over 3 million years — from ~400 cm³ (Australopithecus) to ~1,400 cm³ (modern Homo sapiens). This is the most dramatic encephalization in the history of life, and NO consensus exists on wh
