Nomad scientists and the ones left behind

To improve the diversity of the scientific workforce, we should not penalize researchers who are unable to move abroad for long periods.

The Chemistry Behind Eating

On chemistry, scientists, and the arts.

The International Year of Chemistry series finishes with this article. Over a period of a year, the 11 previous articles have provided historical and contemporary glimpses into the field. They have also discussed different aspects of chemistry’s complex structure as a major field of science. Early chemistry evolved from metallurgy (1 ) and alchemy-turned-pharmacy (2, 3 ), and from its very earl...

The Neural Development of 'Us and Them'.

Social groups aid human beings in several ways, ranging from the fulfillment of complex social and personal needs to the promotion of survival. Despite the importance of group affiliation to humans, there remains considerable variation in group preferences across development. In the current study, children and adolescents completed an explicit evaluation task of in-group and out-group members d...
