Paper introductions and discussions show more signs of AI use than results sections. Credit: Laurence Dutton/Getty The use of artificial intelligence to write scientific papers could be much more prevalent than was previously thought. That’s the upshot of a study that estimates that almost nine out of ten papers published in December 2025 in a

A cancer vaccine developed by Moderna and Merck reduced the recurrence of melanoma.Credit: Adam Glanzman/Bloomberg/Getty A personalized mRNA vaccine for melanoma reduced the risk of the cancer returning in a phase III clinical trial, the companies behind the trial announced this week. The vaccine — which relies on the same mRNA technology used to develop

Experimental setup A detailed description of our experimental setup has been given in previous works35,60,61. In short, we trap individual 88Sr atoms in a programmable one-dimensional array of optical tweezers (813 nm) generated by acousto-optic deflectors (AODs). The atoms are initialized in the 5s2 1S0 state and cooled on the narrow-line red transition 5s2 1S0 ↔ 5s5p 3P1

The AI tool was trained on scientific publication-patent pairs.Credit: IB Photography/Alamy Investors and technology-transfer offices expend enormous effort trying to spot commercially promising research before it reaches the point of patenting. Now, a machine-learning tool is aiming to speed up this process by scoring how ‘patent-like’ a scientific paper is — months or years before

Animals Wild-type C57BL/6J female and male mice (2–6 months old; Jackson Laboratory) were used as experimental animals. Mice were housed under a reversed 12 h–12 h light–dark cycle (lights off at 07:00 and on at 19:00) in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment (18–23 °C, 40–60% humidity), with ad libitum access to food and water. Training began when mice
