The work of this group is in close co-operation with the Virtual Anthropology- and the Stereolithograpy group but focuses mainly on the analysis of brain development during human evolution and the application of geometric morphometrics
The combination of CT-data and the use of geometric morphometrics to investigate aspects of fossil hominid morphology is of relatively recent origin but has the potential to contribute significantly to our understanding of internal morphology as well as the overall dimensions of incomplete or fossil skulls.
