          Canine Brain Atlas Sheds Light on Evolution of Human Brain Function

          A recent study using a novel canine brain atlas has led to significant insights about the evolution of the human brain. By investigating brain activity in dogs through fMRI, researchers revealed the critical role of the cingulate cortex and the lateral frontal lobes in problem-solving and task-switching. The research also highlighted how brain areas function in synchrony to form task-specific networks.
