Despite meeting a clinical and societal need for snakebite antivenom development, VenomAb folded after four years, propelling co-founder Andreas Laustsen-Kiel to a role that combines entrepreneurship and academia.

As mpox becomes a global health emergency, global health leaders must better coordinate their plans and pharmaceutical companies must be prepared to make vaccines affordable.

The UN wants to put communities at the heart of its data-collection efforts in support of the Sustainable Development Goals. Now governments must step up.

If the European Medicines Agency takes an overly cautious approach to selecting specialists to advise on new medicines, people could be left without treatments.

Sources say the nations are close to a deal, but the looming US presidential election is likely bogging it down.

Rejuvenated eggs were more likely to result in healthy offspring.

The first face transplant to also include an eyeball was a surgical coup — but restoring vision remains a challenge.

Scientists come together for unexpected discoveries and ‘collateral happiness’. Plus, ways to persuade a climate sceptic and how the brain knows whether you should cough or sneeze.

The future development of advanced molecular systems with controlled rotation requires the development of an effective methodology for assessing the rotational performance of artificial machine components. We identified two patterns of the dielectric behavior for polar rotators in a static non-polar framework of sizable crystal showing relations between the spectral and molecular-level features of

Andrew Robinson reviews five of the best science picks.

As the only ocularist in Uganda, Franklin Wasswa produces customized prosthetic eyes for people who’ve lost their own to injury or disease.

Large-scale evaluation permeates the UK university system, but some countries are rejecting harsh judgements and emphasizing strategic development.

The Pathoplexus database has sequences from Ebola, West Nile virus and another dangerous pathogen.

As wildfires become more frequent and severe, efforts to improve the resilience of forests must be grounded in data and led by Indigenous Peoples.

The engagement-fuelled logic of social media has bequeathed us a world in which what’s trending is a yardstick for what’s true.

A dye that helps to give Doritos their orange colour helps scientists look inside tissues. Plus, the first pictures from NASA’s solar sail and how a loss of bats to disease has knock-on effects for human health.

The study of topological band insulators has revealed fascinating phases characterized by band topology indices and anomalous boundary modes protected by global symmetries. In strongly correlated systems, where the traditional notion of electronic bands becomes obsolete, it has been established that topological insulator phases persist as stable phases, separate from the trivial insulators. However

The aquatic mammals disperse seeds of their favourite foods as they migrate, according to a serendipitous study of their poo.

Hear why a commonly used conservation stat could be harmful

‘Sneeze neurons’ activated by triggers such as pollen or a viral infection send an achoo signal, whereas cough neurons induce a hack.

Study in China finds viruses that could infect people are rampant in farms breeding mink, raccoons and foxes for their fur.

Telling people about the consensus among scientists can help, study finds, but experts think that personal conversations are needed, too.

Some are pivoting to alternative social-media platforms and scrambling to rebuild their networks.

Two-terminal monolithic perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells demonstrate huge advantages in power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared to their respective single-junction counterparts1,2. However, suppressing interfacial recombination at the wide-bandgap perovskite/electron transport layer interface, without compromising its superior charge transport performance, remains a significant challenge for

Beef production accounts for 3% of country’s carbon emissions, but measures such as tree-planting offer help.

Process breaks down two of the most common plastics into raw ingredients.

Scientists have demonstrated all of the ingredients they need to make a nuclear clock. Plus, a study sheds light on how the immune systems of trans men are affected by hormone replacement therapy and we follow one scientist’s mission to protect his work from plagiarism.

A method that renders skin temporarily see-through could offer researchers a non-invasive way to look inside the bodies of live mice.
