    ..The morphology of the fossils indicates that there was strong selection to orient the plantar surface of the toes facing the ground at the expense of a grasping foot and inversion ability...
  2. ncbi Functional anatomy of the olecranon process in hominoids and plio-pleistocene hominins
    Michelle S M Drapeau
    Departement d Anthropologie, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Am J Phys Anthropol 124:297-314. 2004
    ..This suggests that Homo and Australopithecus used their TBM in a flexed position, a position most consistent with manipulatory activities...

    M S M Drapeau
    Departement d Anthropologie, Universite de Montreal, Succursale Centre Ville, Canada
    J Hum Evol 48:593-642. 2005
    ..We conclude that selection for effective arboreality in the upper limb of Australopithecus afarensis was weaker than in non-hominins, and that manipulative ability was of greater selective advantage than in extant great apes...
  4. ncbi Modeling and remodeling responses to normal loading in the human lower limb
    Michelle S M Drapeau
    Departement d Anthropologie, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Am J Phys Anthropol 129:403-9. 2006
    ..In addition, our results support previous observations that remodeling is not uniform within the cross section of a bone, probably a reflection of different loading histories within the different regions of the cross section...

    Michelle S M Drapeau
    Departement d Anthropologie, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, QC, Canada H3C 3J7
    Am J Phys Anthropol 132:327-43. 2007
    ..Thus, while Pan may have elongated its metacarpus relative to ulnar length, A. afarensis may have reduced the length of its metacarpals and possibly its humerus relative to body size from the primitive condition...

    ..All other hominin fossils included in this study have trochlear notches intermediate in form between Homo and Gorilla or Pan, suggesting a muscularity that is less than in African apes but greater than in humans...
