Rosalind Franklin’s contribution to the discovery of DNA structure highlighted
A previously overlooked letter and a news article that was never published, both written in 1953, add to other lines of evidence showing Rosalind Franklin was an equal contributor - not a victim - in the discovery of DNA's structure. Matthew Cobb, from The University of Manchester and Nathaniel Comfort from the John Hopkins University School of Medicine make the case for the scientist in a comment article in this week's Nature.

Analysis: DNA study opens a window into African civilisations that left a lasting legacy
PhD candidate Nancy Bird (UCL Genetics Institute) describes in The Conversation how her genetics research reveals evidence of the migrations of ancient people across Africa, and other major events of the past, embedded in the genomes of today's inhabitants. Pre-colonial African history is alive with tales of civilisations rising and falling and of different cultures intermingling across the continent.

’Antisocial’ damselfish are scaring off cleaner fish customers - and this could contribute to coral reef breakdown
Damselfish have been discovered to disrupt -cleaning services- vital to the health of reefs. And climate change may mean this is only likely to get worse.

Scars mended using transplanted hair follicles in Imperial College London study
Researchers have found that hair follicle transplants can promote scar rejuvenation by altering their architecture and genetic makeup. In a new study involving three volunteers, skin scars began to behave more like uninjured skin after they were treated with hair follicle transplants. The scarred skin harboured new cells and blood vessels, remodelled collagen to Our findings lay the foundation for exciting new therapies that can rejuvenate scars and restore the function of healthy skin.
