Mass spectrometry-based lipidomics and metabolomics generate large, complex datasets requiring effective analysis. Here, authors review key statistical and visualization methods alongside widely used R and Python tools, and provide a GitBook with step-by-step code for accessible, reproducible data analysis.

A new approach sheds light on the biological features learned by protein language models, promising greater interpretability for unsupervised sequence learning.

Coffee growers are facing climate change, labor shortages and incomes below the poverty line. On International Coffee Day, we take stock of the industry behind the beverage.

Gene editors designed using artificial intelligence can undertake precision editing of the human genome.

The key autophagy-related protein ZmATG8c plays a positive role in enhancing maize thermotolerance during both vegetative and reproductive growth stages.

Cuando el maíz se convirtió en un negocio industrial, las prácticas tradicionales fueron sustituidas por maquinaria, agrotóxicos e ingeniería genética. Ahora, tras los devastadores impactos ambientale...

Scientists warn that “flying rivers” — invisible streams of moisture that carry rain from the Atlantic Ocean westward across the Amazon — are weakening as deforestation and climate change advance.

Nature’s global survey of 3,785 doctoral students shows satisfaction has recovered from pandemic lows, but harassment and inadequate supervision remain widespread.
