Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-17774-5Despite their widespread use, many fundamental questions about the internal structure of microgels are still open. Here the authors describe several pathways toward a complete understanding of microgel colloids based on recent experimental advances in nanoscale characterization.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-17432-wLipid bilayers feature an intricate interplay between membrane geometry and its chemical composition but lack of a model system with simultaneous control over membrane shape and composition prevented a fundamental understanding of curvature-induced effects. Here the authors demonstrate that the local substrate geometry and global chemical composition of the bilayer determine both the spatial arrangement and...

Revised estimates of ocean-atmosphere CO<sub>2</sub> flux are consistent with ocean carbon inventory
Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18203-3Ocean uptake of carbon dioxide impacts the climate, but flux estimates from surface measurements have not been corrected for temperature differences between surface and water sampling depth. Making that correction, the authors find previous estimates for ocean uptake have been substantially underestimated.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18165-6Little is known about how cardiac metabolism remodels following cardiac injury. Here, the authors show that mitochondrial CaMKII plays an important role in remodeling cardiac metabolism after injury and that replacement of mitochondrial creatine kinase improves energetics and protects against adverse remodeling.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18250-wSo far no vaccine or antiviral therapy is available for Echovirus 30 (E30) that causes aseptic meningitis. Here, the authors generate and characterise two E30-specific monoclonal antibodies that block binding of the virus to its attachment receptor CD55 and uncoating receptor FcRn, and determine the cryo-EM structures of E30 with the bound neutralizing antibodies.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18258-2Dust emissions are likely to increase significantly when land vegetation is absent, such as during the Precambrian period. Here, the authors use climate simulations to find that high dust emissions in the Precambrian could have cooled the global climate by ~10 °C.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18111-6Single-atomic impurities may induce novel quantum state, but they are unexplored in topological magnets. Here, the authors report spin-down polarized bound states which further interact with neighboring states to form spin-orbit split quantized orbitals in a topological magnet Co3Sn2S2.

Nature Communications, Published online: 04 September 2020; doi:10.1038/s41467-020-18213-1To simulate band structures of solid state materials synthetic lattices are usually generated by optical lattices or by irreversible patterning the system. Here, the authors present reconfigurable synthetic band-structures in optical exciton-polariton lattices and generate non-Hermitian topological phases.
