Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Dopaminergic novelty detection and theta oscillations: Virtual reality‐based adaptive interventions for cognitive enhancement in aging

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 169-189, Summer 2026.
Aging‐related cognitive decline is associated with reduced dopaminergic signaling and disrupted theta oscillations, which together impair novelty detection and memory formation. This review shows how VR environments can be used to deliver adaptive, novelty‐rich stimuli that engage dopaminergic circuits and entrain theta rhythms, thereby enhancing ...

Mental Health Predictors of Dynamic Balance in Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is linked to impaired dynamic balance and psychological deficits, potentially hindering optimal rehabilitation outcomes. However, the impact of psychological deficits on dynamic balance has not been explored before. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine whether mental health factors predict
