Experiment shows that, in a worst-case scenario, humanity could use a nuclear explosion to save the planet from a deadly impact.

In brain tumours, immune cells called macrophages scavenge lipid debris from the myelin sheath of neurons. These lipid-laden macrophages cause immunosuppression, and their transfer of lipids to ...

A common diabetes drug slows monkey brain-ageing by the human equivalent of 18 years. Plus, research-integrity sleuths call out journals for ‘stealth corrections’ and a new commission convenes ...

How an experience results in a long-term memory has remained unknown. A circuit involving the posteromedial nucleus of the cortical amygdala in the brain is shown to consolidate memories for ...

Body counts are a crude measure of the war’s impact and more reliable estimates will take time to compile.

Geneticists are trying to understand the elevated risks of heart and metabolic disease among people of South Asian ancestry, but some question whether a purely biological approach is best.

This document provides an outline of the editorial process involved in publishing a scientific paper (Article) in Nature, and describes how manuscripts are handled by editors between submission ...

With a combined length of 23 million light years, these jets are the biggest yet discovered — plus, a single-step process for making metal alloys.
