Ross-Hatsopoulos Lab paper

Robust cortical encoding of 3D tongue shape during feeding in macaques

This new paper from the long-standing Ross-Hatsopoulos Lab collaboration was based on JD Laurence-Chasen’s dissertation. This is the first evidence that the brain encodes shape dynamics of a muscular soft-body. Great work, JD!

New Ross Lab paper on macaques as models for human mandibular fracture fixation

Macaca mulatta is a good model for human mandibular fixation research

This paper is a product of our collaborations with Dr. Russell Reid MD, PhD at University of Chicago, Olga Pangiotopoulou, PhD at Monash. Two Pritzker School of Medical Medicine students worked on this paper, with Pranav Haravu leading the charge. Thanks to all involved.

New Ross Lab paper on sagittal suture strain in capuchins

Thanks to Craig Byron for leading the charge on this great paper reporting in vivo bone strain from multiple sites across the sagittal suture in capuchins. These are important data on the variation in strain along the suture and across different behaviors.
