The UK code of practice for researchers working with stem-cell-based embryo models is designed to both reassure the public and provide valuable guidance to researchers.
The explosive uptake of generative artificial intelligence in writing is raising difficult questions about when use of the technology should be allowed.
Early-career researchers are being targeted by organizers of exploitative meetings. There needs to be more awareness and perhaps legal redress over this dangerous development.
Structural, functional and computational evidence demonstrates that when certain ion channels are activated by mechanical force, they assume an open configuration in which the pore is formed by both protein and lipids.
Mice live longer and healthier lives when a cytokine protein called IL-11 is inhibited. The findings show how researchers can move beyond broad generalizations to engage with the nuances that modulate the pace of ageing.
Too often, journal assessments of potentially unreliable research are superficial, opaque and prolonged. Changes to the guidance given by the Committee on Publication Ethics could tighten up the process.
Nature interviewed 12 female wildlife researchers who say they were harassed while working at conservation organizations in India. Why does the country’s sexual-harassment law sometimes fail to safeguard women?
