DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2018.03.010

Abstract: &NA; The entropic brain hypothesis proposes that within upper and lower limits, after which consciousness may be lost, the entropy of spontaneous brain activity indexes the informational richness of conscious states. Here the hypothesis is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhac089

Abstract: The social brain hypothesis posits that a disproportionate encephalization in primates enabled to adapt behavior to a social context. Also, it has been proposed that phylogenetically recent brain areas are disproportionally affected by neurodegeneration. Using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2025.1169

Abstract: The social brain hypothesis (SBH) posits that complex social environments drive the evolution of larger brains and enlargement of specific brain regions. Among species comparisons often report contrasting relationships between social complexity and brain size,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1749-4877.13033

Abstract: The social brain hypothesis predicts that the relative size of specific brain regions is driven by the cognitive capacity required to manage complex (social) situations. Spiders are intriguing models to test this hypothesis, as sociality… read more here.
