Hollow porous micro/nanostructures with high surface area and shell permeability have
attracted tremendous attention. Particularly, the synthesis and structural tailoring of diverse …

A key goal of biomedical research is to elucidate the complex network of gene interactions
underlying complex traits such as common human diseases. Here we detail a multistep …

It is ubiquitous that meaningful structures are formed by or appear over textured surfaces.
Extracting them under the complication of texture patterns, which could be regular, near-regular…

The synthesis of solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity and the design of electrode
interface with preferable compatibility are critical to realize the bulk-type application of all-solid-…

The realization of long-range ferromagnetic order in two-dimensional van der Waals crystals,
combined with their rich electronic and optical properties, could lead to new magnetic, …

Electrochemically converting nitrate, a widespread water pollutant, back to valuable ammonia
is a green and delocalized route for ammonia synthesis, and can be an appealing and …

Transition-metal single-atom catalysts present extraordinary activity per metal atomic site, but
suffer from low metal-atom densities (typically less than 5 wt% or 1 at.%), which limits their …

Genetic variants that are associated with common human diseases do not lead directly to
disease, but instead act on intermediate, molecular phenotypes that in turn induce changes in …

Identifying variations in DNA that increase susceptibility to disease is one of the primary aims
of genetic studies using a forward genetics approach. However, identification of disease-…

Watermelon, Citrullus lanatus, is an important cucurbit crop grown throughout the world.
Here we report a high-quality draft genome sequence of the east Asia watermelon cultivar …
