This project aims to enhance the understanding of bird evolution by using advanced imaging techniques to study the brain structure of both fossil and modern birds. It seeks to identify evolutionary relationships and the impact of brain development on avian diversity.
The evolution of modern birds is still poorly understood.
My recent phylogenetic results constitute the first step towards a new picture of the history of modern birds and demonstrate that the incorporation of key fossil taxa into phylogenetic analyses permits to elucidate hypotheses of relationship supported on the basis of extant taxa alone.
Milner and colleagues recently investigated the brain anatomy of very ancient birds, using state-of-the-art high resolution X-ray computed tomographic (CT…
