Monday is going to be a big day for the lab at #AnatomyConnected24! #Anatomy24

Applications for #SOAR2024 are now open! This is a great opportunity for undergrads to do PAID research in #anatomy, #functionalmorphology, #bioanthropology, and #biomechanics. Apply at unthsc.edu/soar. @AnatomyOrg @SICB_DCB_DVM @BiologicalAnth @HumanAandPSoc





Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) causes brittle bones. Young OI mice: globular brains & higher cranial base angles than non-OI. Adult OI mice: weak skull-brain integration. Postnatal growth mechanisms maintain neurological function. T Husain, @MenegazLab et al doi.org/10.1002/ar.253…

Courtney Miller, PhD Candidate in the lab of Dr. Rachel Menegaz, was awarded a grant from @NSF for her doctoral dissertation research project: Musculoskeletal Craniofacial Evolution and Developmental Plasticity During Early Life. Congrats Courtney!









Congratulations to lab members @Cmillmbs and Tooba Husain for being recognized as outstanding students in their respective disciplines at the 2022 @GSBS_UNTHSC awards banquet!
