US halts funding to controversial virus-hunting group: what researchers think
Some scientists think the decision regarding EcoHealth Alliance is fair, while others say it might negatively impact virus surveillance.

Found at last: long-lost branch of the Nile that ran by the pyramids
Geological survey reveals the remains of a major waterway that ancient Egyptian builders could have used to transport materials.

Gut microbes linked to fatty diet drive tumour growth
Scientists know there is a link between obesity and some cancers. A study in mice and people suggests why that might be.

Organoids merge to model the blood–brain barrier
Combining a brain organoid with a blood-vessel organoid yields a system similar to a protective mesh in the brain.
Controlled failure: The building designed to limit catastrophe
New design - inspired by lizard tails - could save lives by isolating collapsing sections of damaged buildings
Evolution of a novel adrenal cell type that promotes parental care
The adrenal gland of the oldfield mouse ( Peromyscus polionotus ) has a recently evolved cell type that promotes monogamous-typical parenting behaviour and is not present in closely related species.

Suppressed thermal transport in silicon nanoribbons by inhomogeneous strain
We report on a method for inducing uncontaminated and precise inhomogeneous strain in nanoscale silicon ribbons and its use for determining physical effects in these strained materials, in particular, an increase in the range and control of thermal conductivity.

The rise of baobab trees in Madagascar
We carried out genomic and ecological analyses of all eight extant baobab species, providing insights into their evolutionary history and recommendations for conservation efforts.

Arresting failure propagation in buildings through collapse isolation
A design approach arrests collapse propagation in buildings after major initial failures by ensuring that specific elements fail before the failure of the most important components for global stability.

Dispersion-assisted high-dimensional photodetector
By combining spatial and frequency dispersive thin-film interfaces with deep residual learning, a miniature photodetector allowing the acquisition of high-dimensional information on light in a single-shot fashion is described.

GLP-1-directed NMDA receptor antagonism for obesity treatment
Unimolecular integration of NMDA receptor antagonism with GLP-1 receptor agonism effectively reverses obesity, hyperglycaemia and dyslipidaemia in rodent models of metabolic disease.

Photocatalytic doping of organic semiconductors
A previously undescribed photocatalytic approach enables the effective p-type and n-type doping of organic semiconductors at room temperature using only widely available weak dopants such as oxygen and triethylamine.

The temperature sensor TWA1 is required for thermotolerance in Arabidopsis
TWA1 is a temperature-sensing transcriptional co-regulator that is needed for basal and acquired thermotolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Temporal multiplexing of perception and memory codes in IT cortex
We examined how familiar faces are encoded in inferotemporal, perirhinal and temporal pole face patches, and found that relative response magnitude to familiar versus unfamiliar faces was not a stable indicator of familiarity in any patch.

Superconducting diode effect and interference patterns in kagome CsV 3 Sb 5
We observe the superconducting diode effect and interference patterns in CsV 3 Sb 5 , implying a time-reversal symmetry-breaking superconducting order in kagome superconductors.

Physiological temperature drives TRPM4 ligand recognition and gating
A temperature-dependent Ca 2+ -binding site in the intracellular domain of TRPM4 is essential for TRPM4 function in physiological contexts.

Entanglement of nanophotonic quantum memory nodes in a telecom network
Entanglement of two nanophotonic quantum network nodes is demonstrated through 40 km spools of low-loss fibre and a 35-km long fibre loop deployed in the Boston area urban environment.

Engineered CD47 protects T cells for enhanced antitumour immunity
Combination of TCR or CAR T cells expressing the engineered CD47 variant 47 E with anti-CD47 antibody therapy results in synergistic antitumour efficacy due to T cell resistance to clearance by macrophages, while maintaining macrophage recruitment into the tumour microenvironment.
