Surface scans capture rotator cuff volume across hominoids; origin areas predict muscle size, paving the way for improved reconstructions. van Beesel, Melillo, and Vereecke's latest publication is now available in @journalofanatomy.bsky.social
A huge congratulations to all the #HumanEvo25 prize winners 👏
🎉 including Palaeotrails’s @avantikab.bsky.social who won a a prize for her poster Tracing Ancient Footsteps using sulphur isotopes 🏆
Round 2 of the poster pitch talks! 🚨
Including Palaeotrails' @sarah-paris.bsky.social Otto Geissier and Tom Van Parys
From reconstructing populations to Ronaldo, come and see the wide range of fascinating research on display!
