Facial morphology—a conspicuous feature of human appearance—is highly heritable.
Previous studies on the genetic basis of facial morphology were performed mainly in …

Volumetric variations of the human brain are heritable and are associated with many brain-
related complex traits. Here we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of 101 …

Major differences in facial morphology distinguish vertebrate species. Variation of facial
traits underlies the uniqueness of human individuals, and abnormal craniofacial …

Morphogenesis of the brain and face is intrinsically linked by a number of factors. These
include: origins of tissues, adjacency allowing their physical interactions, and molecular …

Numerous lines of evidence point to a genetic basis for facial morphology in humans, yet
little is known about how specific genetic variants relate to the phenotypic expression of …

Here we report that monkeys raised without exposure to faces did not develop face domains,
but did develop domains for other categories and did show normal retinotopic organization …

How does cortical tissue change as brain function and behavior improve from childhood to
adulthood? By combining quantitative and functional magnetic resonance imaging in …

Cortical morphology is a key determinant of cognitive ability and mental health. Its
development is a highly intricate process spanning decades, involving the coordinated …

Here we report on detailed three-dimensional maps revealing how brain structure is
influenced by individual genetic differences. A genetic continuum was detected in which …

The human face is a complex assemblage of highly variable yet clearly heritable anatomic
structures that together make each of us unique, distinguishable, and recognizable …
