  8. Why do humans exhibit such a striking right-hand preference? This study of 41 anthropoid species reveals #Homosapiens as an evolutionary outlier & identifies #bipedalism & #brain expansion as likely drivers of human lateralization @PLOSBiology plos.io/4ufOvWJ

  13. Did our ancestors walk upright earlier than we thought? New analysis shows Sahelanthropus tchadensis was bipedal 7 million years ago, pushing the origins of human walking to the dawn of our lineage. #Archaeology #Anthropology #HumanEvolution #Bipedalism #Fossils anthropology.net/p/standing-up

  18. Uncovering the #Genes That Let Our Ancestors Walk Upright
    A new study reveals some of the crucial molecular steps on the path to #bipedalism.
    “Man alone has become a biped,” Darwin wrote. Bipedalism, he declared, was one of humanity’s “most conspicuous characters.”
    Scientists have now discovered some of the crucial molecular steps. Some genes became active in novel places in the human embryo, while others turned on and off at different times.

  23. New research shows the human pelvis didn’t evolve gradually—it flipped its growth pattern 90° and rewired bone formation. These shifts let our ancestors walk upright and birth big-brained babies. #HumanEvolution #Anthropology #Bipedalism anthropology.net/p/two-genetic

  28. A feature that makes #humans human is our ability to walk upright, or the fact that we are obligate #bipeds. How did this come to be when all our cousins had other methods of locomotion? Hear what some leading experts have to say - youtu.be/2uzenS00WzE?si=4Lbkhy #Bipedalism Symposium!

    Erbgut-Entschlüsselung: Warum Zweibeinigkeit buchstäblich cool ist

    Erstmals zeigt eine Landkarte, welche Gene den aufrechten Gang ermöglichen. Und die Forscher liefern unerwartete Belege, welchen Vorteil die Zweibeinigkeit hat.

  31. Lucy lived long ago,
    A distant figure in the show
    Her muscles 3D scanned
    Withstanding the test of time, the stand
    A fossil now that taught us how she walked

    Did we evolve from a knuckle walking ape? Probably not.
    What evidence we have so far points to something else.

    "From the nucleus of each cell to the architecture of our organs, the human body, too, bears the traces and wounds of a long and contrasting evolutionary history."
