MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Daily briefing: People older than 100 have more cancer-killing cells

Nature, Published online: 20 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02617-yKiller T cells might help people to live to extraordinarily old ages. Plus, the longest-lived brain organoids so far and how mass genome-screening programmes for newborns might w...

Briefing Chat: New narcolepsy drug could unlock host of novel brain therapies

Nature, Published online: 21 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02626-xNature staff discuss how an FDA-approved drug for narcolepsy could have promise beyond the condition, and the longest-lived human brain organoids yet.

We May Be Wrong About How the Brain Stores Memory

In a new study, mice recovered their memories by regrowing brain connections lost during artificial hibernation. Our cherished memories may be more resilient than previously thought.Long-term memories are stored in synapses, the connections between n...

'Rainbow-on-a-chip' could help unlock 6G networks and precision timing for quantum technologies

Loughborough University physicists and an international team have demonstrated that a grain-of-rice-sized microchip can be used to produce a spectrum of precisely spaced frequencies of light, which is then converted into multiple high-frequency elect...

Scientists catch a hidden electronic state forming in just 30 femtoseconds

Scientists watched a light-triggered hidden state form inside a material in only 30 femtoseconds, revealing a step that had never been seen before. The material first entered a fleeting electronic state in which its bonds reorganized in a repeating p...
