Nanodiamonds made from tiny graphene triangles
Nature, Published online: 01 July 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02001-w][1]
Nanodiamonds can host atom-sized light emitters for quantum sensing and imaging, but making nanodiamonds that are small, crystalline and uniform has been difficult. A single-step process for making nanodiamonds only 3–4 nanometres in size uses planar carbon ‘nanographene’ molecules with hydrogen atoms on the edges, and can be adapted to generate fluorescent nanodiamonds.

Mysterious protein sets up a beneficial partnership between bacteria and insects
Nature, Published online: 01 July 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02007-4][1]
Buchnera bacteria that live in the cells of insects known as aphids secrete a protein called SyeA, which is crucial for colonization. The structural similarity of SyeA to proteins secreted by disease-causing bacteria indicates that the beneficial symbiotic relationship between Buchnera and aphids had pathogenic origins.

Liver fat steers the outcome of advanced colorectal cancer
Nature, Published online: 01 July 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-01747-7][1]
In about 50% of people with colorectal cancer, tumour cells spread to distant organs. The ability of these metastases to grow into the liver tissue shapes prognosis. It emerges that liver fat promotes a form of liver metastasis with a poor prognosis, suggesting that individual-specific traits can inform risk stratification and treatment.
