Here a variety of defects in zeolites are used to stabilize zwitterionic glycine that is not self-stable …             Tuning the metal-insulator crossover and magnetism in SrRuO3 by ionic gating ▶     Hee Taek Yi, Bin Gao, Wei Xie et al.     Reversible control of charge transport and magnetic properties without degradation is a key for device applications of transition metal oxides. Chemical doping during the growth …             Adiabatic Quantum Simulation of Quantum Chemistry ▶     Ryan Babbush, Peter J. Love, Alán Aspuru-Guzik     We show how to apply the quantum adiabatic algorithm directly to the quantum computation of molecular properties. We describe a procedure to map electronic structure Hamiltonians …             A green approach to the synthesis of novel “Desert rose stone”-like nanobiocatalytic system with excellent enzyme activity and stability ▶     Min Wang, Wen-Jing Bao, Jiong Wang et al.     3D hierarchical layer double hydroxides (LDHs) have attracted extensive interest due to their unique electronic and catalytic properties. Unfortunately, the existing preparation …             Collective Structural Changes in Vermiculite Clay Suspensions Induced by Cesium Ions ▶     Ryuhei Motokawa, Hitoshi Endo, Shingo Yokoyama et al.     Following the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011, Cs radioisotopes have been dispersed over a wide area. Most of the Cs has remained on the surface of the soil because Cs …             Optical spectrum of bottom-up graphene nanoribbons: towards efficient atom-thick excitonic solar cells ▶     Cesar E. P. Villegas, P. B. Mendonça, A. R. Rocha     Recently, atomically well-defined cove-shaped graphene nanoribbons have been obtained using bottom-up synthesis. These nanoribbons have an optical gap in the visible range of the …             Optimization of Evans blue quantitation in limited rat tissue samples ▶     Hwai-Lee Wang, Ted Weita Lai     Evans blue dye (EBD) is an inert tracer that measures plasma volume in human subjects and vascular permeability in animal models. Quantitation of EBD can be difficult when dye …             Atomic-scale control of TiO6 octahedra through solution chemistry towards giant dielectric response ▶     Wanbiao Hu, Liping Li, Guangshe Li et al.     The structures of many important functional oxides contain networks of metal-oxygen polyhedral units i.e. MOn. The correlation between the configurations and connectivities of …             Self-cleaning Metal Organic Framework (MOF) based ultra filtration membranes - A solution to bio-fouling in membrane separation processes ▶     J. A. Prince, S. Bhuvana, V. Anbharasi et al.     Bio-fouling is a serious problem in many membrane-based separation processes for water and wastewater treatment. Current state of the art methods to overcome this are to modify …             Nanostructured organosilicon luminophores and their application in highly efficient plastic scintillators ▶     Sergei A. Ponomarenko, Nikolay M. Surin, Oleg V. Borshchev et al.     Organic luminophores are widely used in various optoelectronic devices, which serve for photonics, nuclear and particle physics, quantum electronics, medical diagnostics and many …             Formation of Graphene Grain Boundaries on Cu(100) Surface and a Route Towards Their Elimination in Chemical Vapor Deposition Growth ▶     Qinghong Yuan, Guangyao Song, Deyan Sun et al.     Grain boundaries (GBs) in graphene prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) greatly degrade the electrical and mechanical properties of graphene and thus hinder the …                     • Careers & Jobs           naturejobs.com Science jobs of the week       postdoctoral fellow     McGill University            Doctoral student     University of Jyvaskyla, Finland            Postdoctoral Researcher     John Innes Centre (JIC)            PhD Scholarships 2015 – NEW AND REDEVELOPED     Arthritis Research UK            Research Technician     European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL)            Post Doctoral Research Fellow     Columbia University            Doctoral Researcher     KU Leuven            Postdoctoral Research Associate     University of Oxford            Four-Year Science PhD Studentships     Institute of Cancer Research (ICR)            Postdoctoral Fellow     San Diego Biomedical Research Institute          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.
