FEATURED SCIENCE BRIEF VIDEOS
White Shark Sperm Samples
What time of year are white sharks breeding? Where are the sharks breeding? By collecting semen samples, scientists can determine reproductive seasonality of great white sharks, in order to help protect them.
White Sharks & Novel Antibiotics
By collecting bacteria samples from great white shark teeth, gums, eyes, gills, dorsal fin, and ventral fin surfaces researchers can study beneficial microbes, screen for antibiotic production, and possibly develop human therapies.
OCEARCH produces an extensive official Science Brief for each expedition that outlines the objectives of every research project, and the collaborative team of researchers and institutions that are working on them. View all the details here.
