Great job, great journal, great team - I wholeheartedly encourage anyone interested to apply!

"This bold anthology rewrites the history of quantum physics and challenges its image of Knabenphysik — or boys’ physics, as it became known as in the 1920s because of the prominent work of a small group of young men"

will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other

All I want for Christmas is books! I asked 10 researchers about a book that galvanized them; they cooked up a poignant, serious yet joyful and ultimately uplifting collection. "I have never read a book like this before — deeply personal, yet relevant to everyone." www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Liang Wenfeng, DeepSeek's founder, is one of Nature's 10 - those who took a prominent role in shaping science this year 🧪🤖 DeepSeek makes frontier models for very cheap. I profiled him & the firm here (as well as you can profile a man who doesn't speak to the media) www.nature.com/articles/d41...

@nature.com asked me to write an op-ed on the perspective of the AI reviewing process, prompted by the recent partnership between @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social and @qedscience.bsky.social Hope my perspective adds value to the conversation. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

You've probably heard how a high percentage of #Nobel laureates are immigrants. The US in particular has benefited from the influx of bright minds. @jennaahart.bsky.social ran the data for this century's Nobel prizewinners — and shows more than 30% immigrated. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Jane Goodall, known for her pioneering work with chimpanzees, has passed away aged 91 go.nature.com/46K10ja

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

One of those synonyms for “pseudoscience” isn’t like the others… 👀 #chemsky

But over these days I’ve been deeply moved by the many responses to my Nature World View @nature.com @natureportfolio.nature.com on equity in science. It has sparked conversations I never imagined, across continents and disciplines. If you haven’t read it yet, I invite you to do so👉 rdcu.be/eGEun

Decades in science taught me this: inequity won’t end with optics or lip service. The system won’t transform itself. Real change means building sideways: horizontal collaborations, valuing local expertise, and setting other terms for authorship, funding, and leadership.

We were incredibly honored to welcome Dr. Isabel Torres from Mothers in Science to #UniversityofWarwick this week! Dr. Torres presented deeply insightful and frankly quite horrifying studies on the treatment of mothers in academia and how parenthood impacts STEMM careers. Great discussions!!

Have quantum mechanics proved Einstein wrong, sent particles back in time, decrypted everything, messed with physicists and philosophers...? Check in this myth-busting piece from @hossenfelder.bsky.social, @mariaviolaris.bsky.social, Estelle Inack, Shweta Agrawal, Emily Adlam and Norma Sanchez

It's hard to believe that nearly a decade has passed since @geojane.bsky.social went to B.U.'s administration and detailed her shocking experiences as a grad student under my then-adviser, Dave Marchant. In the years since, we have learned of so, so, so many others who likewise abused their (1/7)

Q: If you ask ChatGPT to write your research paper, based on some outline points, then edit the draft - and don't disclose you used AI - is this ethically appropriate? 👍Yes 🤔Only if you disclose you used AI 🚨Only if you give full details, including prompts ❌Never

There’s no mystery to innovation and economic growth; the US must nurture its scientists or find out the hard way, says Michael S. Lubell, former director of public affairs at the American Physical Society. https://go.nature.com/3GIZ40Z

Very, very, very few universities and institutes (and governments ) in Canada understand this. And consequently they provide no career paths and stability for these absolutely critical researchers. Without them our major (and minor!) core facilities are doomed.
