🚨 New paper published! We report multiple cases of osteomyelitis (bone infection) in sauropod dinosaurs from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil. 👉 doi.org/10.1002/ar.700… #Paleontology #Dinosaur #Fossil #Pathology

A new study maps human facial growth: from birth to adulthood, bone resorption dominates early on—especially in the midface—shaping our flat, non-projecting faces. Growth patterns shift in adolescence. Freidline et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

New research reveals detailed 3D maps of heart nerve networks: cholinergic nerves dominate the sinoatrial node, while noradrenergic input is stronger in the ventricles. In cardiomyopathy, nerve remodeling disrupts this balance. Peter Hanna et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

The missing sabertooth baculum—At what point might the absence of evidence reasonably be considered evidence of absence? By Adam Hartstone-Rose: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

Homenaje al profesor Emiliano Jiménez Fuentes y presentación del volumen especial de The Anatomical Record esta tarde a las 18h. en la Santiago Martín de la Facultad de Ciencias USAL

Researchers studied 15 frog species across development: spinal nerve anomalies are linked to scoliosis, limb rotation altered nerve branching & cranial torsion affected brain & nerve structures. Soliz & Abdala: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

Aquí con unos amigos presentando en la Sala de las Tortugas de la Universidad de Salamanca el Volumen homenaje a Emiliano Jiménez en The Anatomical Record

Researchers evaluated sauropod fossils from Late Cretaceous Brazil and found evidence of active osteomyelitis—no signs of healing, just intense bone reaction. These dinos likely died mid-infection. Tito Aureliano et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

New special issue scrutinizes the roles of cartilage in cranial development. anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/19328494/2…

Announcing a new Special Issue that dives deep into cartilage’s central role in craniofacial growth—from forming the chondrocranium to guiding facial morphogenesis. Cartilage isn't just a template—it shapes, persists & directs Edited by T Smith & V DeLeon anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/19328494/2…

Growth characteristics of hyaline cartilage shape not just the neurocranium, but also the face. See new work by Baldwin in a special issue of The Anatomical Record out this month anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

Caecilians are a little-known group of ~220 limbless, mostly tropical amphibians. Despite unique vertebrae and skull morphology, their postcranial anatomy remains poorly studied. Santos et al. offer detailed overview and propose unified terminology: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

New hypothesis on a classic brain mystery: the lunate sulcus didn’t just shift backward in human evolution—it de-opercularized. In early Homo fossils from Dmanisi, we may be seeing this sulcus fragment and vanish as brain size grew. Dean Falk et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

Synapsid limb evolution reveals a complex journey toward upright posture. Analyzing 936 bones from 330 species, a new study uncovers mosaic shifts in humerus and femur proportions over 320+ million years—shedding light the rise of mammals Bishop & Pierce: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

How does the nose adapt to life underground? Using microCT to study nasal turbinals in caviomorph rodents, a recent study found that arid-dwelling burrowers have more complex respiratory structures—suggesting water-saving adaptations. Belén Baldo et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

How do basking sharks feed with such massive mouths? 🦈 Researchers built a 3D “digital puppet” from CT scans, museum specimens, and video to model their elusive cranial movements during filter feeding. Study by Tairan Li et al.: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar…

Our upcoming Special Issue explores anatomy, diversity & function of sabertooth creatures From giant fangs to lesser-known mysteries, it's a deep dive into morphology that captivates science & imagination. anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar… Reconstruction by A Hartstone-Rose. #FossilFriday
