Check out our latest paper on chimpanzee birth that shows us how great apes can help shed light on the evolution of our own complex birth mechanism 🐵

🐒#Birth is a tight squeeze for #chimpanzees too!

A new study in @NatureEcoEvo shows that the 'obstetrical dilemma' evolved gradually over the course of primate evolution, rather than suddenly in humans as originally argued. 👉 https://t.co/6lNEredkv0

[University of Zurich @UZH_en]

Chimpanzees, like humans, must contend with a confined bony birth canal when giving birth. In humans, the problem was exacerbated by our unique form of upright walking since this led to a twisting of the bony birth canal. The “obstetrical dilemma” therefore evolved gradually over the course of primate evolution.

Wonderful Leibniz Mentoring retreat in Schwanenwerder ❤️ Excited to apply what I’ve learned to PUSH@IT in 2024!

Super excited to get started with exploring our remarkable birth process with the latest addition to Team Pelvis—Laura Watson! 😁

There’s been some Twitter buzz about it lately, but I encourage anyone who’s interested in the #obstetrical #dilemma or #obstetric #conundrum to read our new paper for themselves: https://t.co/Kp4HCFusiA. @Coley_Webb @drbfischer @LiaBetti @krosencek et al.

It was an honor to be interviewed for the @nytimes on the #obstetrical #dilemma. It's difficult to capture the complexity of the debate and move it forward in a short article, so interested readers should definitely check out our recent pub https://t.co/Kp4HCFusiA and...

[Nicole Grunstra @NicoleGrunstra]

Anna Warrener's forthcoming article in @evanthro. I can't wait to read it.

Oldowan tools, butchered hippos, and Paranthropus (oh my!)

2.9 million-year-old artifacts and fossils from Nyayanga, Kenya shed light on the dawn of technology & raise questions about who made the first stone tools

@markwgrabowski I had lots of thoughts but only my response to whether there were implications for the work outside of paleoanthropology made it in there! Would love to discuss more the next time we chat!

[Jason Dinh is just trying his best @byjasonpdinh]

I wrote about human childbirth and why it’s so brutal.

is there an evolutionary dilemma acting on hips that causes a tight fetal fit? or is childbirth better explained by metabolic demands?
