TL;DR: It is established that there is very limited, if any, postnatal neurogenesis in the human olfactory bulb, identifying a fundamental difference in the plasticity of the human brain compared to other mammals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have found natural isotopic ratios in uranium reagents separated before the onset of human nuclear activities, in uranium ores from various origins and in water from a subsurface well in Bad Gastein, Austria.

TL;DR: A chronology for the initial Aegean Late Bronze Age cultural phases (Late Minoan IA, IB, and II) is established by using carbon-14 dates from the surrounding region, cultural phases, and Bayesian statistical analysis.

TL;DR: The first successful direct accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dating of five representative human fossils from the Mladeč Caves is presented, confirming that this fossil assemblage is the oldest cranial, dental and postcranial assemblages of early modern humans in Europe and is therefore central to discussions of modern human emergence in the northwestern Old World and the fate of the Neanderthals.

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of radiocarbon dating of recent organic human material for the determination of the time of death of humans was tested, using hair and lipid samples from individuals with known date of death.
