    Nat Neurosci 8:242-52. 2005
    ..This suggests that connectional elaboration (as gauged by white matter volume) played a key role in human brain evolution...

    ..This study gives an idea of the size of possible error inherent in latex/plaster endocasts, indicating the level of confidence we can have with studies relying on comparisons between them and, e.g., hominid fossil endocasts...
