     With listeners in over 60 countries worldwide

    Humans are among the few species on this planet to have an extremely long developmental period. This is due to the long time period necessary to support proper development of our brains. Researchers at the University College, London, and Penn State have recently discovered that we didn't always take so long to grow up. Their investigation of the tooth records of our early hominid ancestors has led them to believe that this is a more
    recent evolutionary change     than previously thought.
