    Nature Research congratulates the awardees of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry - Jacques Dubochet, Joachim Frank and Richard Henderson. Their pioneering work on the use of cryo-electron microscopy to solve high-resolution structures of biomolecules has provided unprecedented insights into the complexity of life. Here, we present a Collection of Research, Methods, Reviews and Comment pieces from Nature Research to celebrate the award.

    The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael W. Young for their elucidation of the molecular mechanisms controlling circadian rhythm. Their pioneering work in Drosophila uncovered the internal oscillators, or clocks, that synchronize cellular metabolism and organismal behaviour to the light/dark cycle to generate biological rhythms with 24 hour periodicity.

    Cellular lipid bilayers and membrane proteins are highly organised and tightly regulated. Our current understanding of protein—lipid interactions is largely based on advanced biophysical or structural studies of a few prototypes. Although these methods are excellent, there is a need for more generic approaches that can be scaled up to identify and characterise more interactions. This collection, by Nature Protocols and Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology includes Reviews of protein—lipid interactions and the technologies that enable the study of these interactions in a systemic level, and step-by-step Protocols for such techniques.
