Elaborate Mimetic Vocal Displays by Female Superb Lyrebirds
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Some of the most striking vocalizations in birds are made by males that incorporate vocal mimicry in their sexual displays. Mimetic vocalization in females is largely undescribed, but it is unclear whether this is because of a lack of selection for vocal

Mimicry and Prosocial Behavior
Psychological Science, 2004 Recent studies have shown that mimicry occurs unintentionally and even among strangers. In the present studies, we investigated the consequences of this automatic phenomenon in order to learn more about the adaptive function it serves. In three studies, we consistently found that mimicry increases pro-social behavior.

A Dynamic Double‐Flow Gut‐On‐Chip Model for Predictive Absorption Studies In Vitro
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This study presents a novel millifluidic gut‐on‐chip model using the MIVO® device to replicate human intestinal conditions. Dynamic co‐culture of CaCo‐2 and HT‐29 cells accelerates differentiation, modulates mucus thickness, and enhances barrier function.

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.This study reveals why the back feathers of a common kingfisher show various non‐iridescent blueish structural colors by analyzing the internal structures of the feathers. It demonstrates how structural differences lead to the different optical interactions, thereby producing different colors.

Competition and the evolution of imperfect mimicry
Current Zoology, 2012 Mimicry is widely used to exemplify natural selection’s power in promoting adaptation. Nonetheless, it has become increasingly clear that mimicry is frequently imprecise.

Cutaneous basal cell carcinoma mimicking small cell carcinoma
Clinical Case Reports, 2019 Key Clinical Message Neuroendocrine differentiation seen in basal cell carcinomas (BCC) is not generally appreciated by oncologists and can introduce a component of confusion when diagnosing a tumor and developing a management plan.
