How does coffee affect a sleeping brain?
Coffee can help you stay awake. But what does caffeine actually do to your brain once you're asleep? Using AI, a team of researchers has an answer: it affects the brain's "criticality".

Scientists first labelled alcohol as a carcinogen more than 35 years ago, and the evidence has only grown since. What has been less clear is the level of drinking at which cancer risk starts to rise. Nature spoke with experts about the risks. 🧪
