Researchers link a gene to the emergence of spoken language Scientists suggest genetics played a big role – and they say the evolution of this singular ability was key to our survival A new study links a particular gene to the ancient origins of spoken language, proposing that a protein variant found only in humans may have helped us communicate in a novel way
Why did humans start speaking? Scientists point to a specific gene The findings point to a key gene involved in the emergence of Homo sapiens andspeech Researchers have long speculated that language emerged as a survival tool, aiding us in communication, coordinating activities, and passing on knowledge
Genetic Link Between Humans and the Evolution of Speech Found Summary: New research suggests a genetic variant in the NOVA1 protein may have played a key role in the emergence of human speech Scientists introduced this exclusively human variant into mice and observed altered vocalizations, indicating a potential role in vocal communication
Which way to the dawn of speech?: Reanalyzing half a century . . . - Science Recent speech research advances allow more incisive comparison of phylogeny and ontogeny and also an illuminating reinterpretation of vintage primate vocalization data This review produces three major findings First, even among primates, laryngeal descent is not uniquely human
The riddle of speech: After FOXP2 dominated research on the origins of . . . Once molecular biologists entered the fray, the FOXP2 gene attracted huge interest as a crucial candidate for the evolution of speech and it has dominated research for almost two decades That is changing now as other candidate genes emerge as major players in the development of vocalization
