One week ago we published a new dimorphic signal map of the modern human cranium in Scientific Reports @AntProfico @gi_manzi @lumilapm #CarlosLorenzo #JacopoMoggi-Cecchi @urv @iphes @LabCerca the thread: nature.com/articles/s4159…
Thrilled to share our new study, the first to use EEG to explore brain activation during early hominin tool use, with fascinating insights! Congrats to Simona Affinito and team! @geobiodiversity @uni_tue Link: nature.com/articles/s4159… Press Release: shorturl.at/sHkMX

Hey #AABA2024, don't forget to also check the virtual sessions for those who could not join you in L.A.!
A new journal club, BioR, has been launched at the @Dip_Bio_Unipi (Uni of Pisa). Meetings every two weeks will include presentations, brainstorming and discussions to deepen understanding of R applications in biology. #BioR #UniversityofPisa Info: PM @Luca_Rindi and me.
Just defended my Ph.D. thesis on the Sexual Dimorphism of Human Modern Crania at @iphes. Huge thanks to my jury for evaluating me - @DanyCNogueira, #CostantinoBuzi, and #PaulOHiggins. Also, a special thank you to my supervisors @AntProfico and Carlos Lorenzo. #PhD @universitatURV
Wonderful #AHEAD23 meeting in Tarragona! I'm happy to have had the chance to participate and discuss #virtualanthropology and #opensource #R tools! Special thanks to the organizers of the @AHEADmeeting_ and to all the friends and colleagues I met there.
Its great pleasure to present my lastest work support by @moazenlab at @AHEADmeeting_ So happy to meet @AntProfico Costantino Buzi & @Fede_anatomy who helped a lot during past years, finially in person👏👏👏 Also a wonderful talk from colleague from @UCL @PaleoNicole
Se puede meter a @davidgraeber y @davidwengrow y el Cristo del Gran Poder en una charla sobre la subsistencia en el Paleolítico inferior y la Academia? Sí, se puede. Gracias al @AHEADmeeting_ por invitarme a pasarlo bien.
