Birds and crocodylians are the only living members of Archosauria and therefore represent a crucial group to be studied in order to further our understanding of dinosaurs. The book edited by Woodward and Farlow (2023) Ruling...
In collaboration with veterinarians from the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, from a practice for small pets as well as from the laboratory for veterinary diagnostics Laboklin, we investigated the changes in hormonal concentration in relation to the reproductive...
The results of a previous study (Böhmer et al. 2018 The Anatomical Record) revealed that certain muscles in the forelimb of the pine marten have a greater force-generating capacity than that of the stone...
As a result of our ICVM symposium on the axial skeleton, we organized a mini-series of articles in the Journal of Zoology (Böhmer & Buchholtz 2021). Mehta et al. (2020) analyzed fish during locomotion...
Simulating motion between two vertebrae is particularly challenging because the bones articulate at more than one surface. In our paper, we propose a computational method to estimate the possible intervertebral range of motion in...
Although pet rabbit medicine has improved over the last 20 years, diagnostics and targeted therapy are still often restricted as compared to medicine in cats and dogs. Among the most frequently encountered diseases in...
I couldn’t be more excited! Our anatomy atlas is published! More than 400 photographs and illustrations that visualize the diversity in forelimb and hind limb muscle anatomy of 30 mammalian species. We carefully dissected...
Birds vary significantly in the number and shape of vertebrae in the neck. Despite this variation, a similar regionalization along the neck of a diversity of avian species has been observed. Depending on their...
The head-neck system of birds is a highly complex structure that performs a variety of demanding and competing tasks. We here analyzed the neck anatomy of three closely-related vultures that distinctly differ in feeding...
In 2019, I have joined the Editorial Team of the Journal of Zoology. In this regard, I wrote a blog post about a recent publication of my lab in Paris. It was a lot...
