    To fully understand human health and allow everyone access to advances in biomedicine, research programmes must include participants from diverse backgrounds. Nature marked its 150th anniversary in 2018 by introducing a weekly photo essay profiling a scientist in their workplace. Since then, the Where I Work section has showcased more than 200 scientists from more than 70 countries at work in labs, during fieldwork, running companies, funding agencies, treating patients and teaching children. The photographs, now exhibited in King’s Cross, London, depict and celebrate the diversity of science and scientists.

    With this collection, Nature Communications, Nature Medicine, Communications Medicine and Scientific Reports aim to publish research articles spanning the breadth of AMR and across microbial pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites). This includes, and is not limited to epidemiological monitoring of resistance incidence in clinical and environmental settings, novel strategies aiming to combat or prevent AMR (i.e. drug repurposing, drug synergy treatment, and vaccines), improvements in diagnostics, and subsequently tailored treatment, of drug-resistant infections.

    Stem cell models of development, regeneration, and disease are quickly advancing. New technologies and concepts are continuously combined with existing knowledge to create more realistic systems to improve our understanding of these intricate processes. In this collection, we highlight papers published in 2022-2023 across Nature Portfolio journals on topics including embryonic development and stem cells, reproductive biology, synthetic tissues and embryo models, clinical and translational research and tissue stem cells.
