Integrating whole‐bone and regional analyses to understand human scapular growth
Abstract This study investigates ontogenetic changes in human scapular morphology using three‐dimensional geometric morphometrics with whole‐bone and region‐specific analyses. The aim is to evaluate whether the scapula follows a regular developmental pattern and whether its functionally distinct components, the scapular spine (SS) and glenoid fossa ...

Abstract In a large sample of adult crab‐eating macaques, we quantified sexual dimorphism in size, shape, and covariance across the whole skull and among anatomical regions of the cranium and mandible. All regions showed significant mean sex differences, but the magnitude of size and shape dimorphism varied substantially.

Abstract Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a frequently underrecognized condition characterized by overgrowth of the frontal endocranium, most commonly observed in post‐menopausal women. Although its etiology remains unclear, hormonal influences and a possible relationship with neurocognitive changes have been proposed.

Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

The impact of scavenging: perspective from casework in forensic anthropology
Forensic anthropology casework frequently encounters evidence of animal scavenging associated with fragmentation and loss of skeletal material. Published research demonstrates that patterns of destruction in bone can suggest the size and type of animal ...

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

Histories in bone: Navigating the ethical landscape of human skeletal collections in South Africa
Abstract Provenance is at the center of addressing the complicated ethical stewardship of legacy human skeletal collections. Many South African (SA) health science institutions have skeletal collections. While the history of the collections and the demographics of the skeletons have been reported, the provenance of the individuals within the ...

Medical students' perspectives on body donation to science within the Italian context
Abstract Body donation is essential for medical education and research, supporting anatomical training and clinical competence. In Italy, national data on awareness of the legislation regulating body donation and factors shaping donation‐related decisions among healthcare trainees remain limited. This study investigated knowledge of the legal framework,
