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 Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Differences in skull and tooth morphology, stomach contents, and estimated bite force between medium‐to‐large sized (≥100 kg) predatory theropod dinosaurs have long been suspected to correlate with differences in their diets and dietary guilds (e.g., hypercarnivory, piscivory).

Convergent? Minds? Some questions about mental evolution [PDF]
, 2017 In investigating convergent minds, we need to be sure that the things we are looking at are both minds and convergent. In determining whether a shared character state represents a convergence between two organisms, we must know the wider distribution and

Student perspectives on AI‐supported formative assessment in pharmacology
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Aims High‐quality feedback is crucial for helping medical students understand and apply core concepts of pharmacology, yet personalized feedback is resource‐intensive to produce. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a potential solution, but little is known about students' perspectives on AI‐generated feedback.
