SSUCHY STORY TOLD AT THE EUROPEAN RESEARCHERS NIGHT

In the interests of clarity, those Directives should be recast. It should therefore simplify and streamline the existing provisions for those categories in a single instrument. Despite differences between the categories covered by this Directive, they also share a number of characteristics which makes it possible to address them through a common legal framework at Union level.

This Directive should contribute to the Stockholm Programme’s aim of approximating national legislation on the conditions for entry and residence of third-country nationals. Immigration from outside the Union is one source of highly skilled people, and students and researchers are in particular increasingly sought after.

Registered or subscribed? We’re not on Planet of the Apes, but almost. Indeed, scientists have just implanted a gene specific to man that would be responsible for the size of our brain and our so-called advanced cognitive abilities. The result is so spectacular that the research was immediately stopped for ethical reasons.

Indeed, the implanted monkeys are endowed with a much larger brain with potential cognitive capacities located in areas that ethics forbids us to cross. For the time being. The expansion of the human brain during evolution, and in particular the neocortex, is related to our cognitive abilities such as reasoning and language. A certain gene called ARHGAP11B, which is only found in humans, triggers the formation of additional brain stem cells, a prerequisite for a larger brain.

Previous studies have shown that ARHGAP11B, when expressed in mice and ferrets at physiologically high levels, causes expansion of the neocortex, but its relevance to the evolution of primates was not yet clear.
