There is growing interest in the reproducibility of research and ways to enhance transparency. This study uses an international survey of more than 1900 biomedical researchers to reveal the perceived…

The origin of stuttering is closely linked to early brain development in children but ultimately unknown. This Unsolved Mystery highlights critical questions that could inspire future research to…

Cells must access resources to survive, and the anatomy of multicellular structures influences this access. This study shows that bacteria in biofilms divide along oxygen gradients; their end-to-end…

Lighting conditions for laboratory mammals is currently set according to the sensitivity of human vision. This Consensus View defines alternative ‘animal-centric’ metrics and provides guidance for…

H5 influenza is considered a potential pandemic threat. Using deep mutational scanning, this work reveals how the >10,000 different possible amino-acid mutations in hemagglutinin affect cell entry,…

Genome sequencing results and single-cell transcriptomics continue to produce findings that challenge the idea that cancer is purely a ‘genetic disease’. This Essay delves into cancer omics data that…

Current treatments for Alzheimer disease are hampered by limited efficacy, side effects and high costs. This Essay highlights non-invasive sensory stimulation as a promising emerging technology for…

The combination of AI and national health databases offers opportunities, but may also be exploited by unethical agents. This study shows that there has been an explosion of formulaic research…

The Department of Biology at UNC Greensboro (UNCG) seeks an individual with a strong record of accomplishment in microbiology broadly defined for a tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Assista...

Seaweed forests are widely viewed as natural climate solutions, yet warming oceans are driving their rapid decline. This Essay reveals that losses are outpacing restoration efforts by orders of magnit...

This Community Page presents the 100 Diatom Genomes Project, which aims to sequence the genomes and transcriptomes of 100 diatom species across major lineages, life forms and ecological strategies. Th...

Based on the analysis of 376 therapies in 54 human diseases, this study shows that, contrary to widespread assertions, the proportion of successful animal-to-human translation may be higher than…

Semaglutide treatment for 3 months in female mice improved physiological function, attenuated hallmarks of ageing and modulated nutrient sensors and conserved genetic regulators of ageing.
