  • An assessment of early mandibular growth 
    Hutchinson, Erin Frances; L'Abbe, Ericka Noelle; Oettle, Anna Catherina (Elsevier, 2012-04)
    Quantification of skeletal data has been shown to be an effective and reliable method of demonstrating variation in human growth as well as for monitoring and interpreting growth. In South Africa as well as internationally, ...
  • Automated reconstruction : predictive models based on facial morphology matrices 
    Mbonani, Thandolwethu Mbali; L'Abbe, Ericka Noelle; Ridel, Alison Fany (Elsevier, 2024-06)
    Forensic Facial Approximation (FFA) has evolved, with techniques advancing to refine the intercorrelation between the soft-tissue facial profile and the underlying skull. FFA has become essential for identifying unknown ...
  • A comparative analysis of the vestibular apparatus in Epipliopithecus vindobonensis : phylogenetic implications 
    Urciuoli, Alessandro; Zanolli, Clement; Beaudet, Amelie; Pina, Marta; Almecija, Sergio; Moya-Sola, Salvador; Alba, David M. (Elsevier, 2021-02)
    Pliopithecoids are an extinct group of catarrhine primates from the Miocene of Eurasia. More than 50 years ago, they were linked to hylobatids due to some morphological similarities, but most subsequent studies have supported ...
  • Comparative anatomy of the carotid canal in the Miocene small-bodied catarrhine Pliobates cataloniae 
    Bouchet, Florian; Urciuoli, Alessandro; Beaudet, Amelie; Pina, Marta; Moya-Sola, Salvador; Alba, David M. (Elsevier, 2021-12)
    The small-bodied Miocene catarrhine Pliobates cataloniae (11.6 Ma, Spain) displays a mosaic of catarrhine symplesiomorphies and hominoid synapomorphies that hinders deciphering its phylogenetic relationships. Based on ...
  • Covariation between the shape and mineralized tissues of the rib cross section in Homo sapiens, Pan troglodytes and Sts 14 
    Lopez-Rey, Jose M.; Cambra-Moo, Oscar; Martin, Armando Gonzalez; Gonzalez, Nieves Candelas; Sanchez-Andres, Angeles; Tawane, Mirriam; Cazenave, Marine; Williams, Scott A.; Bastir, Markus; Garcia-Martinez, Daniel (Wiley, 2024-01)
    OBJECTIVES : Studying rib torsion is crucial for understanding the evolution of the hominid ribcage. Interestingly, there are variables of the rib cross section that could be associated with rib torsion and, consequently, ...
  • An evaluation of nasal bone and aperture shape among three South African populations 
    McDowell, Jennifer Leigh; Kenyhercz, Michael W.; L'Abbe, Ericka Noelle (Elsevier, 2015-06)
    Reliable and valid population specific standards are necessary to accurately develop a biological profile, which includes an estimation of peer-reported social identification (Hefner, 2009). During the last 300 ...
  • Parietal lobe variation in cercopithecid endocasts 
    Pereira-Pedro, Ana Sofia; Beaudet, Amelie; Bruner, Emiliano (Wiley, 2019-07)
    In extant primates, the posterior parietal cortex is involved in visuospatial integration, attention, and eye‐hand coordination, which are crucial functions for foraging and feeding behaviors. Paleoneurology studies brain ...
