Genetic and anatomical data reveal how the human pelvis acquired its unique shape, enabling our ancestors to walk on two legs ...

WASHINGTON >> Bipedal locomotion — walking upright on two legs — is a fundamental trait underpinning humankind’s success.

The pelvis is often called the keystone of upright locomotion. More than any other part of our lower body, it has been ...

Researchers have identified two pivotal genetic shifts in human evolution that reshaped the pelvis, facilitating bipedal ...

Discovering the hidden steps in human pelvis development through embryonic research, shedding light on bipedal evolution mysteries.

H umans are the only primates that walk on two legs. Scientists believe that their uniquely shaped pelvis, the bones that ...

They found two key evolutionary steps during embryonic development — related to the growth of cartilage and bone in the ...

A new discovery by researchers challenges our current understanding of gastrulation, the most important stage of early embryonic development.

The embryonic development of these appendages is generally thought to be dictated by chemical processes involving interactions between numerous molecules resulting from gene expression.

Researchers bank on stem cells to study developmental biology, understand oral cancer, regenerate organs, and save species on ...
