Shape Ontogeny of the Distal Femur in the Hominidae with Implications for the Evolution of Bipedality. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Heterochrony has been invoked to explain differences in the morphology of modern humans as compared to other great apes. The distal femur is one area where heterochrony has been hypothesized to explain morphological differentiation among Plio-Pleistocene

Plio-Pleistocene evolution of Bohai Basin (East Asia): demise of Bohai Paleolake and transition to marine environment. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 The Bohai Basin was transformed to an inner shelf sea hundreds of thousands years ago. This youngest land-sea transition participated in the significant modification of the distribution of fresh water, sediment fluxes and climate in East Asia and played ...

Social evolution in Plio-Pleistocene hominins: Insights from hamadryas baboons and paleoecology.
Journal of Human Evolution, 2019 Reconstructions of hominin evolution have long benefited from comparisons with nonhuman primates, especially baboons and chimpanzees. The hamadryas baboon (Papio hamadryas) is arguably one of the best such models, as it exhibits both the male kin bonding
