Résumé
The study of the brain morphology combined with different methods derived from the neuroscientific field, provides unique information about comparative anatomy, function, taxonomy and phylogeny, among others. In the fossil record, the soft tissues are not preserved, so virtual models obtained from the imprints left by the brain on the intracranial surface, called endocast, are the key to study the brain. Recent studies have tested in humans if the endocast reflects the morphology of the brain,...
