Scientists find a human-only gene that may help explain our brainpower

sciencedaily.com

Scientists found a human-only gene called SRGAP2 that helps explain our brainpower. Carlos Diaz-Salazar said, "This gene helps control the developmental tempo of neurons." The gene makes human microglia mature slowly over years, which helps organize brain circuits. This process creates a stronger network to process and store information.
