The human brain, relative to our size, is the largest among mammals. What genetic elements determine the size of the brain of a species? Until recently, this question remained unanswered.

However, even among different mammalian species, a large proportion of the genes that control the size of the cerebral cortex are identical. However, it is the size of the cerebral cortex, the outer part of the brain,…

This debate about ancestry was revived in the 17th century by various experiments, including those of Irish aristocrat Robert Boyle. Considered one of the founders of the modern experimental method, Boyle, in 1659, invented the first air pump, a highly advanced device intended to create a vacuum. Its goal is to establish scientific “facts” in the laboratory, without having to utter the true existence of the void, which would remain an impossible metaphysical problem. Because, according to Boyle, knowledge can only come from…
