Different “Me”s open up a new world on a personal and scientific level

Posted by Jack Leeming | Categories: #ScientistOnTheMove, Academia, Career paths, Communication, Diversity, Mobility, Perspectives, Research, Scientists on the move, US

Different “Me”s open up a new world on a personal and scientific level

A light grey room is filled with 23 grey desks, scattered in pens and books. In one corner sits a refrigerator packed with snacks. Next to it is a rice cooker. The walls are covered in pictures of fun lab memories. Amidst the clutter, some students joke and laugh; chat with a professor about their experimental procedures; analyze data on their laptops and unconsciously wrinkle their brows.  Read more

July issue cover: What’s going on here?

Posted by Brooke LaFlamme | Categories: Nature Genetics covers

July issue cover: What's going on here?

This month’s cover features the inspiring block-like karst mountains of the Li River between Guilin and Yangshuo in Guangxi province. The image was inspired by a study in this month’s issue reporting deep sequencing of the MHC region in individuals of Han Chinese ancestry. The study represents an important resource for the study of immune-related disorders in Asian populations. It also identifies loci associated with risk of psoriasis, thus demonstrating the power of this resource.  Read more

Knowledge, networks and nations

Posted by Soapbox Science Editor | Categories: Science communication and outreach, Science organisations

Knowledge, networks and nations

This week’s guest blogger is James Wilsdon, Director of the Science Policy Centre at the Royal Society since 2008. Prior to this, he was Head of Science and Innovation at the think tank Demos. His publications include ‘See-Through Science’ (Demos, 2004) ‘The Public Value of Science’ (Demos, 2005), ‘The Atlas of Ideas’ (Demos, 2007) and ‘China: the next science superpower?’ (Demos, 2007). At the 1908 Olympic Games in London, China failed even to field a team. Eighty years later, in Seoul, they finished in 11th place. And in 2008, as Beijing played host to the most spectacular Olympics in history,  … Read more
