Autorenporträt
Jeremy DeSilva is an associate professor of anthropology at Dartmouth College and a paleoanthropologist, specialising in the fossilised remains of the first apes (hominoids) and early human ancestors and extinct relatives (hominins). Through his particular anatomical expertise-the foot and leg-he has made major contributions, many featured in the international media, to our understanding of the origins and evolution of upright walking in the human lineage.
