Phonetic Faithfulness in Phonological Opacity by Kim, Yeong-Joon

“…The results of typological surveys encompassing 87 counterfeeding and 65 counterbleeding interactions across languages support this prediction, revealing that opacified processes are subject to a narrow range of markedness conditions, such as coarticulatory assimilation (e.g., palatalization) and durational adjustments (e.g., segmental weakening). Other types of phonological processes, particularly non-natural ones, are only rarely, if ever, opacified. …”

Elucidating the role of metabolic changes in modulating cell fate following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs by Wong, Alex Xing Fah

“…Better understanding of the cellular pathways underlying this escape from antimitotic drug-induced cell death, known as mitotic slippage, is crucial for development of combinatorial therapies that can enhance existing treatment regimen in patients. Mitotic slippage describes a phenomenon where cells escape mitotic arrest and cell death following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs, and "slip" into interphase without proper chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. …”
