Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Anatomy
  • Internal medicine
  • Primate

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Anatomy, Skull, Basicranium, Primate and Allometry. The various areas that Matthew J. Ravosa examines in his Anatomy study include Bite force quotient, Masticatory force, Mastication and Mandibular symphysis. When carried out as part of a general Skull research project, his work on Chondrocranium is frequently linked to work in Paleoneurology, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

The Postorbital bar research Matthew J. Ravosa does as part of his general Primate study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Encephalization and Partial correlation, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Postorbital bar research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology and Zoology. His studies deal with areas such as Propithecus tattersalli, Sifaka, Ontogeny, Supraorbital ridge and Lemur as well as Allometry.

His most cited work include:

  • The primate cranial base: ontogeny, function, and integration. (376 citations)
  • Basicranial flexion, relative brain size, and facial kyphosis in nonhuman primates (240 citations)
  • Remarkable species diversity in Malagasy mouse lemurs (primates, Microcebus) (194 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Anatomy, Masticatory force, Allometry, Skull and Primate are his primary areas of study. His Anatomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bite force quotient, Mandibular symphysis, Mandible and Mastication. His Masticatory force study incorporates themes from Adaptive plasticity, Condyle, Cortical bone, Temporomandibular joint and Neuroscience.

The Allometry study combines topics in areas such as Zoology, Morphology, Lemur and Ontogeny. His work in Skull covers topics such as Cercopithecidae which are related to areas like Animal ecology. In general Primate study, his work on Postorbital bar often relates to the realm of Encephalization, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (65.89%)
  • Masticatory force (35.66%)
  • Allometry (34.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Dentistry (5.43%)
  • Masticatory force (35.66%)
  • Ovarian cancer (3.88%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Matthew J. Ravosa mainly investigates Dentistry, Masticatory force, Ovarian cancer, Zoology and Anatomy. Matthew J. Ravosa has researched Dentistry in several fields, including Coefficient of variation and Zoledronic acid. His research in Masticatory force intersects with topics in Adaptive plasticity and Mastication.

The concepts of his Ovarian cancer study are interwoven with issues in Metastasis, Peritoneal cavity and Cancer research. His Zoology research incorporates themes from Quadrupedalism, Bipedalism, Propithecus and Biting. Anatomy and Mandible are frequently intertwined in his study.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Experimental perspective on fallback foods and dietary adaptations in early hominins. (71 citations)
  • Teaching an Old Jaw New Tricks: Diet-Induced Plasticity in a Model Organism, from Weaning to Adulthood (18 citations)
  • Chewed out: an experimental link between food material properties and repetitive loading of the masticatory apparatus in mammals (14 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Anatomy
  • Cancer

Matthew J. Ravosa mostly deals with Masticatory force, Dentistry, Mastication, Zoology and Variation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phenotypic plasticity, Condyle and Articular surface. His work investigates the relationship between Dentistry and topics such as Zoledronic acid that intersect with problems in Cortical bone.

His Mastication research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Bite force quotient, Symphysis and Biomechanics. Symphysis is a primary field of his research addressed under Anatomy. His Zoology research incorporates elements of Primate, Facial morphology and Phylogenetic tree.
