Abstract Purpose of Review Cortical bone mapping (CBM) is a technique for measuring
localised skeletal changes from computed tomography (CT) images. It can provide …

Primate fingers are typically in direct contact with the environment during both locomotion
and manipulation, and aspects of external phalangeal morphology are known to reflect …

Trabecular bone remodels during life in response to loading and thus should, at least in part,
reflect potential variation in the magnitude, frequency and direction of joint loading across …

Objectives Internal bone structure, both cortical and trabecular bone, remodels in response
to loading and may provide important information regarding behavior. The foot is well suited …

Hand bone morphology is regularly used to link particular hominin species with behaviors
relevant to cognitive/technological progress. Debates about the functional significance of …

Objectives To systematically characterize intra‐limb patterns of skeletal plasticity to loading
among living women, in order to better understand regional complexity in structural …

Objectives The dexterity of fossil hominins is often inferred by assessing the comparative
manual anatomy and behaviors of extant hominids, with a focus on the thumb. The aim of …

In Primates, enamel thickness variation stems from an evolutionary interplay between
functional/adaptive constraints (ecology) and the strict control mechanisms of the …

Since the cross-sectional geometries of long bone diaphyses preserve evidence of a bone's
mechanical loading history, examination of a bones' cross-sectional properties can be used …

Extant great apes are characterized by a wide range of locomotor, postural and manipulative
behaviours that each require the limbs to be used in different ways. In addition to external …
