Epigenome Roadmap In contrast to the primary sequence of the genome the epigenetic landscape varies between cell and tissue types, contributing to define cell identity, lineage specification, and to the onset and progression of human disease. The NIH Roadmap Epigenomics Program was established to systematically characterize the epigenomic landscapes of selected primary human tissues and cells, to elucidate how epigenetic processes contribute to human biology and disease. Now, Nature Publishing Group presents an online portal — the Epigenome Roadmap — which collects key research papers in which main results of the project are analysed and discussed. Research papers are complemented by thematical ‘threads’ to help the readers mine the wealth of available information. Inside DeepMind Nature Video gets a rare glimpse inside Google's AI lab, DeepMind. Here, the quest for artificial intelligence starts with Space Invaders. Epigenome: The symphony in your cells Nature Video teams up with musicians to explain how the packaging of DNA affects gene expression — and how this could contribute to disease. Nature Collections: Multicolor flow cytometry Flow cytometry is a powerful laser-based technology commonly used for cell counting, cell sorting and biomarker detection. This Collection features discussion on how advances of modern multicolor flow cytometry have driven research forward, especially in the field of immunology. Molecular Therapy — Nucleic Acids: Aptamers Special Issue Nucleic acid aptamers are short, single-stranded oligonucleotides engineered through repeated rounds of selection to bind to various molecular targets such as small molecules, proteins, nucleic acids, and even cells, tissues, and organisms. This Special Issue reviews the latest developments in SELEX and aptamer technology.
