Single-cell omics approaches are providing unprecedented insights into cellular function and dysfunction. This Editorial highlights the remarkable potential of these technologies and their profound impact on our understanding of biology and disease.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the challenges and opportunities of our inter-connected world in responding to global crises.

In this Editorial, we reflect on the field’s responsibility around the potential uses and abuses of genetics and genomics research.

From the June 2021 issue onwards, Nature Reviews Genetics will publish Journal Club articles, which explore a historical scientific publication that has served as inspiration to the author.

As Nature Reviews Genetics turns 20 years, the editors embrace the opportunity to pause and reflect on the past, take stock of the present and look to the future. Please join us in celebrating our Anniversary issue.

Just as humans thrive from being part of a community, genetics and genomics benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge integration.

For genomics to fulfil its potential of improving human health, diversity and inclusion must be recognized as essential catalysts of research success.

Genomics has transformed the field of microbiology, but remaining challenges will need to be tackled for its benefits to be felt globally.

Two recent articles in Nature Reviews Genetics discuss the exciting opportunities of single-cell omics studies but also highlight the importance of appropriate data analysis strategies.
