Observation of an unexpectedly large number of particles containing strange quarks, created by colliding protons together at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, is reported in a paper published in Nature Physics. This observation will aid understanding of how strange particles first emerged from the primordial quark soup.
Although most of climate change’s social impacts are likely to be negative, a paper published in Nature Human Behaviour reports a possible positive for the United States. The study suggests that imminent warming may increase recreational physical activity, in turn magnifying the benefits of exercise.
A new bacterial species, which colonised an underwater volcano after its eruption wiped out the original surrounding life, is described in a paper published in Nature Ecology & Evolution. The study provides insights into understanding how life restarts and the creation of new habitats following a catastrophic event.
A system that supports extremely premature lambs in an external artificial womb is demonstrated in Nature Communications. The lambs were supported for four weeks, which is the longest time an extra-uterine device has maintained stable animal function. This advance could improve chances for survival in prematurely-born infants.
To celebrate World Immunology Day 2017, The Francis Crick Institute and Nature Research present a panel discussion: Collaborating to Beat Lung Infections and Asthma. Join us on the evening of Friday 5th May at the Francis Crick Institute in London to hear experts discuss how lungs respond to infections and asthma.
Nature Reviews Disease Primers publishes content on diseases and disorders across all medical specialities. Take a look at the Primer on Post-traumatic stress disorder.
2.4-billion-year-old fossils that show similarities to some living fungi are reported in a paper published in Nature Ecology & Evolution. The discovery helps to understand development of early life; the fossils are either the earliest fungi by one to two billion years, or the earliest fossils by five hundred million years.
Research published in Nature Medicine demonstrates a method to eliminate senescent cells to halt osteoarthritis progression. Scientists eliminated these cells in a mouse model using a senolytic molecule which slowed the progression of disease, and induced cartilage production in human knee tissue grown in culture.
To celebrate DNA Day 2017, journals from across Nature Research have put together a series of high-impact articles in genetics selected by our editors. Join the conversation online by using the hashtag #DNADay17
Scared of going to the dentist? A new study in the BDJ confirms that those with dental phobia are more likely to have active tooth decay or even missing teeth. It goes on to explore how this phobia can affect someone’s quality of life, impacting on physiological, social and emotional wellbeing.
Insect esterases are heavily involved in developing insecticide resistance. This paper, published in Scientific Reports, describes the physiological functions such enzymes may have in re-priming sensory neurons of insects and how they change through natural evolution.
Measuring neuron activity has revealed that psychedelic drugs can create a different kind of consciousness in the brain. The paper, published in Scientific Reports, finds volunteers who received LSD, ketamine or psilocybin were found to have more random brain activity than normal while under the influence.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects the motor system, resulting in progressive muscle weakness, which ultimately becomes fatal. This animation focuses on the mechanisms that drive ALS pathogenesis, watch it in full online: http://go.nature.com/2pY6Wz1
