Optical control of resonances in temporally symmetry-broken metasurfaces Summary This Nature paper reports an experimental demonstration of ultrafast, optical control of radiative loss (γ_rad) in dielectric metasurfaces by creating a…
Data-driven de novo design of super-adhesive hydrogels Summary This Nature paper presents an end-to-end, data-driven pipeline that combines data mining (DM) of adhesive proteins, scalable polymer synthesis and iterative machine-learning…
A diverse and distinct microbiome inside living trees Summary Researchers sampled woody tissues across 16 tree species with global distributions and reveal that living wood houses rich, specialised microbial communities.…
Summary This Nature paper reports that excision circles generated during V(D)J recombination (ESCs) are not inert by-products but instead can replicate, persist through many cell divisions and contribute to relapse…
Structural basis of fast N-type inactivation in Kv channels Summary This study combines cryo-electron microscopy, mass spectrometry and electrophysiology to reveal how fast N-type inactivation occurs in the Shaker Kv…
Summary This paper reports Doppler-free, high-accuracy laser spectroscopy of a rovibrational overtone in the homonuclear molecular ion H2+. Using electric-quadrupole (E2) one-photon spectroscopy on sympathetically cooled molecular ions in a…
NSD2 inhibitors rewire chromatin to treat lung and pancreatic cancers Summary This Nature paper describes the discovery and preclinical characterisation of selective small-molecule inhibitors of the histone methyltransferase NSD2 (notably…
Microglia regulate GABAergic neurogenesis in prenatal human brain through IGF1 Summary This Nature paper shows that during late prenatal development human microglia accumulate in the subventricular zones (iSVZ and oSVZ)…
In situ light-field imaging of octopus locomotion reveals simplified control Summary This Nature paper reports deployments of a light-field imaging system (EyeRIS) mounted on an ROV to record Muusoctopus robustus…
RNA N-glycosylation enables immune evasion and homeostatic efferocytosis Summary This Nature paper reports that small RNAs on cell surfaces and in circulation are N-glycosylated (“glycoRNAs”) and that this modification masks…
