Looking forward to reading this new study by Hyunwoo Jung et al. in American Journal of Biological Anthropology: Evaluating modularity in the hominine skull related to feeding biomechanics onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajā¦
The primate canine honing complex is incredible! In this baboon example, the upper canines are kept sharp throughout life through continuous wear with the lower canines and mesial premolars. #1000baboons @AnthroLUC CENIEH European Research Council (ERC) Tied2Teeth
Looking forward to presenting! I will discuss the potential uses of dentistry technology in biological anthropology, focusing on Tied2Teeth and @AnthroLUC ongoing research on primate tooth wear. Join via Zoom on Friday if you are interested in learning more about our research!

Our great-great-great-great-great grandparent monkeys loved a fruit salad in the lush forests of the #Fayum 30 million years ago! It was an honor to work with Ian Towle and Carolina Loch on this project analyzing fossilized primate teeth! The Conversation U.S. theconversation.com/our-ancient-prā¦
Have you ever wished there was a way to associate fossil teeth with postcranial material? Like, maybe they should have a similar chemical signature if they fossilized together? š§ Happy to have a played a small role in this cool project led by Ted Present š š ! authors.elsevier.com/c/1iboR_6JeyQbā¦
Arrived in LA for #AABA2024 and the Paleoanthropology Society meeting! Looking forward to presenting tomorrow morning on our research assessing tooth wear progression in primates using clinical dentistry technology Tied2Teeth Prof. Leslea J. Hlusko @AnthroLUC Raquel Hernando
Nice summary of the naming, and citing, of Homo erectus in JHE - open access - Eduard Pop, Sofwan Noerwidi and Fred Spoor: "the species erectus was named by Dubois in 1893, and the publication in which he did so is Anonymous (1893)" sciencedirect.com/science/articlā¦
Really interesting new study by @Tseng_ZJ on prolonged canine eruption in saber-toothed carnivores! "...the timing of the eruption of the sabers has been tweaked to allow a double-fang stage"Ā Media article: phys.org/news/2024-04-eā¦ The Anatomical Record article: anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/arā¦
Our new study in PeerJ Publishing explores the use of intraoral scanners to assess tooth wear progression in non-human primates. It also highlights the potential of these techniques for archaeology and paleontology @ChewLabLUC Raquel Hernando Prof. Leslea J. Hlusko Tied2Teeth Ā peerj.com/articles/17614/
