The sci-fi films that physicists love to watch Nature surveyed scientists about their favourite cinematic moments to celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology.

Although many physicists disagree on quantum mechanics, they seem to agree on their favourite sci-fi movies

ASHG is concerned about the research cuts in the proposed U.S. FY26 budget, forecasting substantial reductions to the NIH and other agencies. We urge the U.S. Congress to reject this proposal and maintain support for life-saving biomedical research. Read More: www.ashg.org/publications... #ASHG

We’re creating a massive, 3200-megapixel group photo…and it won’t be complete without YOU!

NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory’s LSST Camera — the largest camera in the world — began on-sky engineering tests this month. So let’s celebrate! 🔭🧪
