Clockwork Orangutan: microRNAs, thermoregulatory tradeoffs, and models of brain size evolution.

Thomas Sorger, Bastian Fromm

This paper re-examines the Expensive Tissue Hypothesis, finding a thermoregulatory tradeoff between liver and brain proportions in mammals, and proposes a model of brain size evolution based on metabolic rates and microRNA families.
