Attosecond control and measurement of chiral photoionization dynamics Summary This Nature paper introduces “attosecond chiroptical spectroscopy”: the first application of circularly polarised attosecond extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) pulses to probe and coherently…
Microbial iron oxide respiration coupled to sulfide oxidation Content summary The paper presents a genome‑wide survey and experimental validation showing that many bacteria and archaea carry genetic potential to couple…
Topological prethermal strong zero modes on superconducting processors Summary This Nature paper reports the experimental observation of long-lived topological edge modes at finite (even effectively infinite) temperature in a disorder-free…
One-shot design of functional protein binders with BindCraft Summary BindCraft is an automated pipeline that uses backpropagation through AlphaFold2 (AF2) multimer to ‘hallucinate’ de novo protein binders and their interfaces,…
Neural networks of the mouse visceromotor cortex Summary This Nature paper maps, at cell-type and whole‑brain scale, the dorsal peduncular cortex (DP) — subdivided into superficial DPs and deep DPd…
Mechanical confinement governs phenotypic plasticity in melanoma Summary This Nature paper (Hunter et al.) shows that physical confinement from the tumour microenvironment drives melanoma cells to switch from a proliferative,…
Electrically driven lasing from a dual-cavity perovskite device Summary This paper reports the first demonstration of electrically driven lasing from a vertically integrated dual-cavity perovskite device. The design stacks a…
Summary This Nature paper reports high-resolution crystal structures of the human cannabinoid receptor CB1 bound to two agonists (AM11542 and AM841) and provides structural, mutational and computational analyses that explain…
Thioester-mediated RNA aminoacylation and peptidyl-RNA synthesis in water Summary This Nature paper demonstrates a prebiotically plausible chemical route that selectively attaches amino acids to RNA (aminoacylation) in water at near-neutral…
Ultrabroadband on-chip photonics for full-spectrum wireless communications Summary This Nature paper demonstrates a thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic platform that integrates carrier/LO generation, baseband modulation and wireless–photonic conversion on a…
