TABLE OF CONTENTS August 2015 Volume 10, Issue 8 Research Highlights News and Views Corrections Letters Articles In The Classroom Subscribe   Facebook   RSS   Recommend to library   Twitter   Advertisement Nature Energy: Call for Papers Launching in January 2016, Nature Energy is now open for submissions and inviting high-quality research from across the natural and social sciences. The journal will be dedicated to exploring all aspects of the on-going discussion of energy provision; from the generation and storage of energy, to its distribution and management, the needs and demands of the different actors, and the impacts that energy technologies and policies have on societies. Submit your next research paper to the journal.     Research Highlights Top Our choice from the recent literature   p653 doi:10.1038/nnano.2015.181 News and Views Top Nanoengineering: Super symmetry in cell division   pp655 - 656 Kerwyn Casey Huang doi:10.1038/nnano.2015.148 Bacterial cells can be sculpted into different shapes using nanofabricated chambers and then used to explore the spatial adaptation of protein oscillations that play an important role in cell division.
