Centromeres are regions of chromosomes that are required for cell division. Complete sequence characterization of centromeres from a diverse group of 65 individuals reveals dynamic and rapid patterns of mutational change, providing information about centromere evolution and function.Nature, Published online: 05 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02391-xA study of more than one million people shows that rare genetic variants that disrupt the FNIP1 gene are associated with a favourable metabolic profile and a rough…

A study of more than one million people shows that rare genetic variants that disrupt the FNIP1 gene are associated with a favourable metabolic profile and a roughly 60% lower risk of cardiometabolic disease than the general population. Silencing genes in the FNIP1 pathway in mice induces fat breakdown and reproduces the metabolic benefits associated with the variants in humans.Nature, Published online: 04 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02384-wTo realize ‘a new golden age for science’, the United States needs open borders and must properly fund studies in the social sciences, public health and the humani…
