New from NPG

Nature Genetics has published a special focus on rat genetics. The focus features two comprehensive overviews of the state of the field and the online resources available to investigators, as well as a series of primary research papers presenting the latest discoveries of genes influencing complex traits.

Nature Reviews Genetics is publishing a new series on fundamental concepts in genetics. Each article in this series examines a fundamental concept in genetics, explaining how it works, how it has contributed to genetics and why it is of continuing importance today.

Nature Reviews Genetics has published a special focus on genetics and global challenges. The focus explores a range of areas in which genetics can be put to use in tackling issues of environmental change, population growth and decline in fossil fuel reserves.
