Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta
Abstract Early life behaviors have a profound role in shaping adult craniofacial morphology. During early life, all mammals undergo the dynamic transition from suckling to mastication, a period coinciding with rapid cranial biomineralization. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that impacts the production of type I collagen, disrupts ...

INTERDEPENDENCE OF DENTAL ARCH FORM AND THE SURFACE AREA OF THE DEVELOPED OCCLUSION PLAN
The shape of the dental arch influences both the alignment of the teeth and the aesthetics of the smile. This study analyzes the impact of different orthodontic arch shapes on the surface of the occlusion plane, using precise digital measurements ...

Linking individual variation in facial musculature to facial behavior in rhesus macaques
Abstract Facial expression is a key component of primate communication, and primates (including humans) have a complex system of facial musculature underpinning this behavior. Human facial musculature is highly variable across individuals, but to date, whether other primate species exhibit a similar level of inter‐individual variation is unknown ...

Abstract Modularity and integration are key developmental properties and have remained central in evo‐devo research because of how they relate to evolvability. While modularity and integration have commonly been assessed with landmark‐based geometric morphometrics (GMM), other methods such as anatomical network analysis (AnNA) are increasingly being ...
