Bone Fusion in Normal and Pathological Development is Constrained by the Network Architecture of the Human Skull

Abstract Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of cranial bones, affects the correct development of the skull producing morphological malformations in newborns. To assess the susceptibility of each craniofacial articulation to close prematurely, we used a network model of the skull to quantify the...
