Using synchrotron X-ray nanotomography with detailed 3D imaging and in-situ mechanical testing, researchers are peering inside shark skeletons at the nanoscale, revealing a microscopic 'sharkitecture' ...

The evolution of the shark is not what most people would expect. Instead of sharks evolving from a massive predator, the original creature was a small, leaf-shaped fish. This fish lacked eyes and fins ...

Scientists documented the first formal case of spinal deformation in a whale shark (Rhincodon typus), observed at the Gulf of Mexico’s Ewing Bank.

An X-ray nanotomography reconstruction of the intermedial cartilage of a blacktip shark. The colors indicate the thickness of the struts, with red representing thicker areas and blue indicating ...
