Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.

The relationship between theory of mind and mental rotation ability in preschool-aged children

Cogent Psychology, 2019
This study investigates the relationship between two tasks of perspective taking, the social perspective taking ability, namely theory of mind, and the spatial one, namely mental rotation, in preschool-aged children.

Mental and manual rotation.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1998
The relation between mental and manual rotation was investigated in 2 experiments. Experiment 1 compared the response times (RTs) of mental rotation about 4 axes in space with the RTs shown in the same task when participants were allowed to reorient the stimuli by means of rotational hand movements.

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

The impact of COVID‐19 pre‐university education on first‐grade medical students. A performance study of students of a Department of Histology

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 254-263, March 2025.
Abstract The recent coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) forced pre‐university professionals to modify the educational system. This work aimed to determine the effects of pandemic situation on students' access to medical studies by comparing the performance of medical students.

‘SOMS BrainSpace’: A digital serious game for undergraduate neuroscience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy is challenging for many undergraduates, requiring strong visuospatial skills and a deep understanding of complex concepts. This study developed and evaluated SOMS BrainSpace, a digital serious game for neuroanatomy education, using a mixed methods approach.

Sex differences in large-scale brain network connectivity for mental rotation performance

NeuroImage
Mental rotation has emerged as an important predictor for success in science, technology, engineering, and math fields. Previous studies have shown that males and females perform mental rotation tasks differently.
