Our work on the histology and mineralization patterns of 3 Devonian chondrichthyan taxa from Morocco is finally out now! I am very happy to share this work and hope there will be more to come about early shark tooth histology!
Thanks to all my co-authors, especially Hector Botella!

In 2023, I published my first PhD chapter as a scientific paper – producing a framework to infer shark traits from tooth measurements. Being based on living sharks, I would subsequently apply this fra...
Lungfishes (Dipnoi, Sarcopterygii) initially radiated in the Early Devonian, and reached the apogee of their diversity during this period, especially with regard to their dentitions. Following the end...
