Experiments with a quantum simulator made from an integrated optical circuit reveal that bosons and fermions react to disorder in different ways, experiencing different strengths of Anderson localization.

In the News and Views article entitled "Anderson localization: The role of quantum symmetries" (Nature Photon. 7, 271–273; 2013), the authors of ref. 8, on which this piece was based, should have been listed as Crespi, A. et al. This error has been corrected in both the HTML and PDF versions.
