Women need platforms to celebrate excellence in research and technology Our editorial lays out why we are proud to provide or associate with awards for outstanding researchers and innovators who are women. #AcademicSky #WomeninSTEM @natureportfolio.nature.com šŸ§Ŗ www.nature.com/articles/d41...

šŸ“¢In our latest Editorial, we reflect on what science tells us about the importance of diversity. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Nature is proud to be associated with a new award for women in technology. The world needs more prizes for exceptional researchers and innovators https://go.nature.com/4gNzXqh

Technology Feature: Solar cells for stored energy. "Thermophotovoltaics has made great progress recently and the first start-ups are entering the market with storage systems for renewable energy. But how promising is this technology?" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Technology Feature: Renewable hydrogen is having a moment. "Companies are scaling up proton exchange membrane electrolyser production, but the technology needs to grow much faster, and become less expensive, to meet ambitious climate goals." www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our latest editorial on Technolgy Features is here. As a "nanosciences and -technology" journal we are interested in following the journey of technologies that come out of academic research. We asked two journalists to investigate. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
