Rapid evolutionary cortical expansion and reorganization in the human brain is most pronounced in higher-order cognitive networks, specifically the frontoparietal network and the Default Mode Network (DMN), and runs parallel with high expression of human-accelerated genes (HAR genes) involved in synapse and dendrite formation, according to Wei et al. (2019).
