Dr Gabriel Jamie is currently visiting the Evolutionsbiologisk centrum (EBC) at Uppsala University, Sweden, where he is collaborating with Professor Per Alström. On Wednesday 17 May he gave a research seminar to the department on research into mimicry, speciation and polymorphism in Africa’s brood-parasitic birds. He explored the amazing diversity of egg polymorphisms found in both Cuckoo Finches Anomalospiza imberbis and their hosts.
What role does learning play in the origin of new species? As part of the "Network for the Integration of Speciation" research series, Dr Gabriel Jamie gave a seminar together with Professor Maria Servedio on learning, imprinting and speciation:...

Our paper “Chase-away evolution maintains imperfect mimicry in a brood parasite–host system despite rapid evolution of mimics” has been published in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.
Our paper “Repeatable randomness, invariant properties, and the design of biological signatures of identity” has been published in the journal Evolution.
