Scientists have found that what makes us human may not be what we have in our DNA, but what we lack. They identified 10,000 pieces of DNA that are present in other mammals but deleted in humans. These deletions are related to genes involved in brain and cognitive functions, suggesting that they played a role in human evolution.
