Biomimicry driven Architecture
, 2021 Biomimicy is coined by the greek words bios meaning life and mimesis is to imitate. Hence biomimicry is imitating natural life, its forms and ways in order to evolve newer and efficient solutions. Biomimicry tries to recreate elements and systems of nature in a way that it could solve complex human problems.

Increasing phospholipid biomimicry governs water permeability in droplet interface bilayers
Droplet, EarlyView.Increasing phospholipid biomimicry in droplet interface bilayers alters how membranes respond to “membrane‐active molecules” such as cholesterol and niacin. This shows that membranes made using synthetic lipids can overestimate small‐molecule effects, highlighting the importance of using biomimetic lipid compositions to improve physiological relevance ...
