Fossilized skin reveals coevolution with feathers and metabolism in feathered dinosaurs and early birds [PDF]
, 2018 Feathers are remarkable evolutionary innovations that are associated with complex adaptations of the skin in modern birds. Fossilised feathers in non-avian dinosaurs and basal birds provide insights into feather evolution, but how associated ...

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities
Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Taphonomie des ensembles lithiques du Paléolithique moyen en contexte loessique
Les Nouvelles de l’Archéologie, 2009 The periglacial climatic environment affected most of the European Palaeolithic settlements. The dynamic processes, especially produced by frost, have altered distinctive morphology and spatial distribution of lithic artefacts. The possible similarity of

Trace fossils associated with Burgess Shale non-biomineralized carapaces: bringing taphonomic and ecological controls into focus [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 The association of trace fossils and non-biomineralized carapaces has been reported from Cambrian Lagerstätten worldwide, but the abundance, ichnodiversity, taphonomy and ecological significance of such associations have yet to be fully investigated. Two
