Send us an image that captures your research and workplace for a chance to win a prize.

Evidence is building that the Northern Hemisphere is on course for a surge of COVID-19 cases this autumn and winter. Plus, a Nobel prize for ‘spooky’ quantum entanglement, and a call to reward research for being useful — not just flashy.

To mark the launch of Nature’s 2022 #ScientistAtWork photo competition, three experts offer tips on how to best capture your science on camera.

Massive SARS-CoV-2 sequencing project in Africa brings global benefits.

Snippets from Nature’s past.

Nature highlights three key graphics from the week in science and research.

Nusrat Ghani face pressing issues such as the future of funding for Britain’s researchers.

The little animals known for their toughness have normal lifespans even when subjected to multiple cycles of freezing and thawing.

Award goes to three experimental physicists whose pioneering research has laid the groundwork for quantum information science.

Funders must make pragmatism prestigious; the current obsession with novelty risks making science irrelevant.

After NASA’s DART asteroid-deflection experiment, a fully funded telescope for detecting space rocks is an equally pressing priority.

Nature's experts consider the war in Ukraine and science.

For the first time, scientists simulate the worldwide spread of the staggering wave triggered by the Chicxulub impact.

Mouse embryoids grown to mid-gestation stage in culture.

Meet the winner of the medicine Nobel prize, consider how genes can affect lifespan and learn how a public-health approach can help to reduce gun injuries in the United States.

Hatchery manager Cyril Barbier farms fish on land to conserve water and electricity and protect the oceans.

Despite agreeing to make raw data available, some authors fail to comply. The right strategies and platforms can ease the task.

Svante Pääbo has made stunning discoveries about our forebear species by analysing ancient DNA.

Emerging variants and waning immunity are likely to push infections higher in the northern hemisphere as influenza also makes a comeback.

From firearm suicide and homicide to unintended harm, a public-health approach can establish the knowledge and know-how needed to reduce suffering.

Two studies have found the clearest link yet between cancer and fungi. Plus, we look at the cause and environmental impact of mysterious leaks in the Nord Stream gas pipelines, and promising results from an Alzheimer’s drug trial.

Exchange operator formalism describes many-body integrable systems using phase-space variables involving an exchange operator that acts on any pair of particles. We establish an equivalence between models described by exchange operator formalism and the complete infinite family of parent Hamiltonians describing quantum many-body models with ground states of Jastrow form. This makes it possible to identify

The conservation of an axial current modified by the gravitational chiral anomaly implies the universal transport phenomenon (kinematical vortical effect) dependent solely on medium vorticity and acceleration, but not dependent explicitly on its temperature and density. This general analysis is verified for the case of massless fermions with spin-12.

Researchers fear further cuts to funding and a lack of action on climate.
