Screenshot of the first page of the Editorial, 'Science under siege: protecting scientific progress in turbulent times', written by James Briscoe, Craig Franklin, Daniel Gorelick. Elizabeth Patton and Michael Way. The publication information in the top line says, '© 2025. Published by The Company of Biologists | Journal of Cell Science (2025) 138, jcs263970. doi:10.1242/jcs.263970. The first paragraph of the article says, 'As Editors-in-Chief of The Company of Biologists’ journals, we have been watching with growing concern the policy changes in the United States of America (USA) and the challenges that these are creating. It is unusual for us to comment on a nation’s science policies or politics, but the rapid ongoing developments in the USA and their potential impact on research worldwide are beyond the usual.'

I am not that surprised that more women quit academic publishing than men- this chimes with data showing fewer women get their papers published, grants funded if they lead them and that more women get pushed into support roles. We do need to do more to support and mentor female staff. 🧪

In a new Science study, researchers report that twisted carbon nanotube filaments can emit circularly polarized thermal radiation with a high brightness. These materials could be used at high temperatures that are unattainable by existing emitters. Learn more in this issue: scim.ag/41A9W9Y
All objects emit a blackbody spectrum, but Planck’s law does not say whether this emission is polarized. Heated twisted fibers are shown to emit circularly polarized blackbody radiation when their helical pitch is comparable to the wavelength of light. These fibers could be used as circularly polarized light sources at extreme temperature conditions and for object identification tags based on specific polarization signatures.
