The Olfactory Bulb Endocast as a Proxy for Mammalian Olfaction [PDF]
Olfaction is a critical sense for tetrapods, playing a key role in survival and reproduction by aiding in food detection, predator avoidance, and social interactions. Olfactory performance has been experimentally tested in only a few taxa, so comparative analyses rely on anatomical and genomic proxies.

Endocasts of ornithopod dinosaurs: Comparative anatomy
2023Ornithopod dinosaurs were a successful group before they became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous. They were present on every continent, though they were rare in the Southern Hemisphere. We present the results of our work on the brain of these dinosaurs as an attempt to determine which evolutionary trends affected it.

Brief Communication: New Reconstruction of the Taung Endocast
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2007AbstractEarlier reconstructions of the Taung endocast, from the juvenile type specimen for Australopithecus africanus, were achieved without benefit of the advanced computer technology that is available today and before morphological differences were identified that distinguish endocasts of Paranthropus from those of A. africanus.

Endocast, Brain, and Bones: Correspondences and Spatial Relationships in Squamates
Anatomical Record, 2023AbstractVertebrate endocasts are widely used in the fields of paleoneurology and comparative neuroanatomy. The validity of endocranial studies is dependent upon the extent to which an endocast reflects brain morphology. Due to the variable neuroanatomical resolution of vertebrate endocasts, direct information about the brain morphology can be sometimes
