The importance of studying non-human species in natural settings for understanding ecological pressures that shape brain asymmetries is highlighted in the research, along with outlining major research projects that require comparative animal research.
In my comment on the target article of Ocklenburg et al. [Laterality 2020: Entering the next decade. Laterality, 1-33. doi:10.1080/1357650X.2020.1804396], I point out the relevance of studies in non-human species within natural settings for understanding the ecological pressures, which shape the direction and degree of brain asymmetries. I therefore outline some major research projects, which are not included in the paper of Ocklenburg et al. and which require comparative animal research.
