dc.description.abstract
How did humans evolve language? The fossil record does not yield enough
evidence to reconstruct its evolution and animals do not talk. But as the
neural and molecular substrates of language are uncovered, their genesis and
function can be addressed comparatively in other species. FOXP2 is such a case
– a gene with a strong link to language that is also essential for learning in
mice, birds and even flies. Comparing the role FOXP2 plays in humans and other
animals is starting to reveal common principles that may have provided
building blocks for language evolution.
