Population designations in biomedical research: Limitations and perspectives

open access: yesHLA, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 3-15, January 2023., 2023
In biomedical research, population differences are of central interest. Variations in the frequency and severity of diseases and in treatment effects among human subpopulation groups are common in many medical conditions. Unfortunately, the practices in terms of subpopulation labeling do not exhibit the level of rigor one would expect in biomedical ...

Facial morphology characters as means for forensic anthropological identification in human remains entering the Servicio Nacional de Medicina y Ciencias Forenses of the State of Carabobo-Venezuela

open access: yesForensic Science International: Reports, 2022
Human identification of fresh remains is mainly carried out employing dactyloscopy. However, depending on the state of preservation of the body, other forensic sciences such as anthropology, odontology, and genetic analysis may be involved.

Identifying Methylation Patterns in Dental Pulp Aging: Application to Age-at-Death Estimation in Forensic Anthropology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Age-at-death estimation constitutes one of the key parameters for identification of human remains in forensic investigations. However, for applications in forensic anthropology, many current methods are not sufficiently accurate for adult individuals ...

A history of forensic anthropology [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2018
AbstractForensic anthropology represents a dynamic and rapidly evolving complex discipline within anthropology and forensic science. Academic roots extend back to early European anatomists but development coalesced in the Americas through high‐profile court testimony, assemblage of documented collections and focused research.

Virtual anthropology: a preliminary test of macroscopic observation versus 3D surface scans and computed tomography (CT) scans

open access: yesForensic Sciences Research, 2021
Virtual anthropology (VA) is based on applying anthropological methods currently used to analyse bones to 3D models of human remains. While great advances have been made in this endeavour in the past decade, several interrogations concerning how reliable

Open Data and Quantitative Techniques for Anthropology of Road Traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
What kind of questions about human mobility can computational analysis help answer? How to translate the findings into anthropology? We analyzed a publicly available data set of road traffic counters in Slovenia to answer these questions. The data reveals interesting information on how a nation drives, how it travels for tourism, which locations it ...

Tooth morphometry using quasi-conformal theory [PDF]

open access: yesPattern Recognition 99, 107064 (2020), 2019
Shape analysis is important in anthropology, bioarchaeology and forensic science for interpreting useful information from human remains. In particular, teeth are morphologically stable and hence well-suited for shape analysis. In this work, we propose a framework for tooth morphometry using quasi-conformal theory.
