Origin of symbol-using systems: speech, but not sign, without the semantic urge [PDF]
, 2014 Natural language—spoken and signed—is a multichannel phenomenon, involving facial and body expression, and voice and visual intonation that is often used in the service of a social urge to communicate meaning.

EVIDENCE FOR "UNER TAN SYNDROME" AS A HUMAN MODEL FOR REVERSE EVOLUTION [PDF]
, 2006 “Uner Tan Syndrome” was further studied in a second family. There was no cerebellar atrophy, except a mild vermial atrophy in MRI scans of the affected individuals. This is not, however, the pathogenesis of the “Uner Tan Syndrome”, since in the first and

The relevance of late MSA mandibles on the emergence of modern morphology in Northern Africa
Scientific Reports, 2022 North Africa is a key area for understanding hominin population movements and the expansion of our species. It is home to the earliest currently known Homo sapiens (Jebel Irhoud) and several late Middle Stone Age (MSA) fossils, notably Kébibat ...

Divergent evolution of protein conformational dynamics in dihydrofolate reductase. [PDF]
, 2013 Molecular evolution is driven by mutations, which may affect the fitness of an organism and are then subject to natural selection or genetic drift. Analysis of primary protein sequences and tertiary structures has yielded valuable insights into the ...

Plasmodium vivax-like genome sequences shed new insights into Plasmodium vivax biology and evolution [PDF]
, 2018 Although Plasmodium vivax is responsible for the majority of malaria infections outside Africa, little is known about its evolution and pathway to humans. Its closest genetic relative, P.

Accessory cusp expression at the enamel-dentine junction of hominin mandibular molars [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Studies of hominin dental morphology frequently consider accessory cusps on the lower molars, in particular those on the distal margin of the tooth (C6 or distal accessory cusp) and the lingual margin of the tooth (C7 or lingual accessory cusp). They are

Stone tools and the linguistic capabilities of earlier hominids [PDF]
, 1995 The evolution of human manipulative abilities may be clearly linked to the evolution of speech motor control Both creativity and complexity in vocal and manipulative gestures may be closely linked to a single dimension of brain evolution — the evolution ...
