We highlight the vibrant discussions on quantum computing and quantum algorithms that took place at the 2024 American Physical Society March Meeting and invite submissions that notably drive the field of quantum information science forward.
This issue of Nature Computational Science includes a Focus that highlights recent advancements, challenges, and opportunities in the development and use of digital twins across different domains.
The Year of Open Science has highlighted the importance of sharing the code associated with peer-reviewed manuscripts. We at Nature Computational Science provide support — via policies and implementations within our submission system — to facilitate this task.
Ada Lovelace Day celebrates women in STEM careers, but also raises awareness of the challenges that women have faced in science, as well as the importance of female role models in STEM.
As we approach the half-way point in the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, we discuss how computational science could help in reaching some of these goals by 2030.
While the increasing availability of data creates unprecedented research opportunities, it is important to understand the provenance of these datasets to ensure reliable data-driven conclusions.
This month’s Focus issue highlights ongoing work by computational scientists to help address the Sustainable Development Goals, as well as discusses how the sustainability of computational science itself can be improved.
Even though Nature Computational Science is a computational-focused journal, some studies submitted to our journal might require experimental validation in order to verify the reported results and to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed methods.
Materials design has largely expanded to multiple compositions, which requires the mixing of an increasing number of elements. In this joint Focus issue with Nature Materials, we take a closer look at the role of computational methods for guiding exploration within such vast chemical spaces.
Recent changes to our submission system, including a better integration with the Code Ocean platform, make the code peer review process more effortless for authors and referees.
