The challenge is to find an electrode material that can …             C3N4-H5PMo10V2O40: a dual-catalysis system for reductant-free aerobic oxidation of benzene to phenol ▶     Zhouyang Long, Yu Zhou, Guojian Chen et al.     Hydroxylation of benzene is a widely studied atom economical and environmental benign reaction for producing phenol, aiming to replace the existing three-step cumene process. …             Self-organized patterning through the dynamic segregation of DNA and silica nanoparticles ▶     Rastko Joksimovic, Shun Watanabe, Sven Riemer et al.     Exotic pattern formation as a result of drying of an aqueous solution containing DNA and silica nanoparticles is reported. The pattern due to segregation was found to critically …             “Beating speckles” via electrically-induced vibrations of Au nanorods embedded in sol-gel ▶     Margarita Ritenberg, Edith Beilis, Asaf Ilovitsh et al.     Generation of macroscopic phenomena through manipulating nano-scale properties of materials is among the most fundamental goals of nanotechnology research. We demonstrate …             Metabonomic Analysis Reveals Efficient Ameliorating Effects of Acupoint Stimulations on the Menopause-caused Alterations in Mammalian Metabolism ▶     Limin Zhang, Yulan Wang, Yunxiang Xu et al.     Acupoint stimulations are effective in ameliorating symptoms of menopause which is an unavoidable ageing consequence for women. To understand the mechanistic aspects of such …             High-performance transparent and stretchable all-solid supercapacitors based on highly aligned carbon nanotube sheets ▶     Tao Chen, Huisheng Peng, Michael Durstock et al.     By using highly aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) sheets of excellent optical transmittance and mechanical stretchability as both the current collector and active electrode, …             From transistor to trapped-ion computers for quantum chemistry ▶     M.-H. Yung, J. Casanova, A. Mezzacapo et al.     Over the last few decades, quantum chemistry has progressed through the development of computational methods based on modern digital computers. However, these methods can hardly …             Metal-free aqueous redox capacitor via proton rocking-chair system in an organic-based couple ▶     Takaaki Tomai, Satoshi Mitani, Daiki Komatsu et al.     Safe and inexpensive energy storage devices with long cycle lifetimes and high power and energy densities are mandatory for the development of electrical power grids that connect …             Artificial photosynthesis of oxalate and oxalate-based polymer by a photovoltaic reactor ▶     Guangzai Nong, Shan Chen, Yuanjin Xu et al.     A photovoltaic reactor was designed for artificial photosynthesis, based on the reactions involved in high energy hydrogen atoms, which were produced from water electrolysis. …             Non-Enzymatic-Browning-Reaction: A Versatile Route for Production of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Dots with Tunable Multicolor Luminescent Display ▶     Weili Wei, Can Xu, Li Wu et al.     The non-enzymatic browning, namely Maillard reaction is commonly invoked to account for abiotic chemical transformations of organic matter. Here we report a new reaction pathway …             Microwave-assisted synthesis of NiS2 nanostructures for supercapacitors and cocatalytic enhancing photocatalytic H2 production ▶     Huan Pang, Chengzhen Wei, Xuexue Li et al.     Uniform NiS2 nanocubes are successfully synthesized with a microwave-assisted method. Interestingly, NiS2 nanocubes, nanospheres and nanoparticles are obtained by controlling …                     • Careers & Jobs           naturejobs.com Science jobs of the week       Post Doctoral Fellow     The Wistar Institute            Post-doctoral researcher     University of Patras            PhD posititon - Immunology     University Hospital Erlangen            Postdoctoral Scientist     University of Oxford            PhD Student     Danish Cancer Society Research Center            Research Associate (Fixed Term)     University of Cambridge            Postdoctoral Fellow     University of Alberta            Postdoctoral Scientist     John Innes Centre            Open PhD position     KU Leuven            Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Michigan     University of Michigan          No matter what your career stage, student, postdoc or senior scientist, you will find articles on naturejobs.com to help guide you in your science career.
