- 6From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedNeuron 62, 42-52 (2009) Neurodegenerative diseases do not sow destruction randomly in the brain, but progress along defined and predictable neuronal networks, according to new imaging work. William Seeley of the...
- 7From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedGlobal terrestrial ecosystems absorbed carbon at a rate of 1-4 Pg [yr.sup.-1] during the 1980s and 1990s, offsetting 10-60 per cent of the fossil-fuel emissions (1,2). The regional patterns and causes of terrestrial...
- 8From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedAt the end of another long Arctic summer day on Canada's Devon Island, Natalia Rybczynski's palaeontology field crew was disheartened, having once again found nothing new. Then, to make matters worse, their all-terrain...

- 10From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedNeglected though they may be compared with the financial meltdown, climate change and pandemics, cyberattacks are just as much of a global threat. Like those others, they demand coordinated action and leadership by...
- 11From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedA major retrospective of Wassily Kandinsky's work opened this month at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, running until 10 August. The exhibition probes beyond his popular image as the inventor of abstract painting. It...
- 12From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedPlant photosynthesis tends to increase with irradiance. However, recent theoretical and observational studies have demonstrated that photosynthesis is also more efficient under diffuse light conditions (1-5). Changes in...
- 13From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedLung disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis, an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in CFTR. In cystic fibrosis, chronic infection and dysregulated neutrophilic inflammation...
- 14From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedSatellite radar images are helping to pin down the origins of the magnitude 6.3 earthquake that devastated the Italian town of L'Aquila on 6 April. Data taken before and after the quake by the Advanced Synthetic...

- 16From: Nature. (Vol. 458, Issue 7241) Peer-ReviewedThe biology of many mental illnesses, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression, is incompletely understood. But it probably involves subtle abnormalities in neuronal development and associated signalling...
