Regional variability in skull sexual dimorphism: Olive baboons, blue monkeys, and vervets confirm the posterior region of the skull and the snout as opposite extremes of sex differences in Old World monkeys

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study, alongside prior work on crab‐eating macaques with O'Higgins, investigates regional variation in skull sexual dimorphism across different species of Old World monkeys. Findings reveal consistent patterns: the posterior skull regions (mandibular vertical ramus, chondrocranium and, possibly, the cranial vault) exhibit lower dimorphism,

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Morphological Similarity Between Edo‐Period Wooden Dentures and Maxillae in Japan: A Three‐Dimensional Analysis Using Homologous Modeling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wooden dentures represent a distinctive form of dental technology uniquely developed in Japan that is no longer in clinical use. Although Edo‐period (1603–1867) wooden dentures are presumed to have achieved sufficient precision, their morphological fit has not been quantitatively evaluated.
