A new cell type drove human brain complexity

Key Points

• The research aims to explore the acquisition of new interneurons related to human brain complexity.
• Analysis of cell types in human brain tissues
• Comparison with non-human primate brain structures
• Investigation of neurodevelopmental pathways
• Identified a novel type of interneuron contributing to brain complexity
• Demonstrated increased interneuron diversity in human brains compared to non-human primates
• Suggests that this cell type may play a crucial role in cognitive functions
