Author(s): Phelia Jassel*
Craniofacial variation is a captivating aspect of human anatomy;
encompassing the diversity in the size; shape; and arrangement of the skull
and facial structures within and between human populations. This minireview
manuscript provides an in-depth exploration of the underlying genetic;
developmental; and environmental factors contributing to craniofacial
diversity. It also delves into the implications of craniofacial variation in
evolutionary studies; population genetics; clinical applications; and forensic
investigations. Understanding craniofacial variation has wide-ranging
significance; including shedding light on human evolutionary history;
informing medical interventions; and aiding forensic identification... Read More»
