The brain of genius and idiot 95% alike

Although from the personality, creativity and intellectual ability of different geniuses and idiots like the two extremes, their brains are actually less than 5%.

A study of scientists at the brain institute chaired by billionaire Paul Allen shows that the similarities and differences between regions on a human brain. They analyzed about 1,000 genes in the brains of quite a lot of people as well as laboratory mice.

The brain of genius and idiot is only 5% different.

The conclusion drawn from this work is that the human brain is actually the same. Among the 1,000 participants in the experiment, the difference between them is only 5%. In addition, when comparing the rat brain and the human brain and mapping the visual region gene on the cortex, the coincidence between the two species is up to 79%.

Expanding the scope of research into other mammals, they see between people and they are very similar in terms of information processing, especially in the visual area, where similarity is up to 84%.

That finding confirms the hypothesis that the brains of species follow the general principles of both organization and function. Just by carefully studying an area of ​​the brain, it is possible to understand how all organs in the body will function.

Research results show that only 21% of the genes on the cortex are responsible for the sight between humans and mice. Thus, scientists have explained quite simply the nature of this difference. They understand that they have turned people into a species with superior intelligence compared to all species on Earth.

The biggest difference between humans and mice involves genes, responsible for creating neural networks in the brain. Clearly, the connection between cells is the key, most important link to making unique functions available only in humans.
