Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

NeuroTwister: Gamified learning to teach cross‐sectional neuroanatomy to medical students
Abstract Neuroscience is a required course in many health professions curricula, but with it often comes neurophobia, the fear or difficulty that students experience when attempting to learn neuroscience. Traditional teaching methods in neuroanatomy may contribute to cognitive overload and stress, reinforcing the notion that neuroanatomy is ...
