In the natural world, an animal can blend strategies so it can advance towards several goals at the same time. An engineering approach called control theory was used to infer people’s goals while they played a simple video game, and showed how three brain regions work together to implement goal blending.Nature, Published online: 12 August 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10773-4Reply to: Pre-clinical data interpretation requires clinical context

Deep imaging of ionized gas in the Helix Nebula uncovers many curved shock waves around a dying Sun-like star. These ‘bow shocks’ are produced when ejected shells of stellar material break up and race outwards. Their changing shapes imply that the shell fragments are being stripped, shredded and mixed into interstellar gas over roughly 10,000 years.Nature, Published online: 12 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02473-wElectrical stimulation of the human brain is a promising strategy for slowing cognitive decline.

Electrical stimulation of the human brain is a promising strategy for slowing cognitive decline. The discovery of cell-type-specific gene programs that are induced in tandem with the activity of networks of neurons in the temporal cortex when it is stimulated could inform the development of therapeutic approaches using stimulation.Nature, Published online: 12 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02478-5A photonic time crystal is an optical system of which properties such as its refractive index are modulated strongly and rapidly over time.

A photonic time crystal is an optical system of which properties such as its refractive index are modulated strongly and rapidly over time. One has now been obtained all-optically by delivering an intense terahertz light wave onto a material with a specialized microstructure that hosts collective waves of electrons known as plasmons.Nature, Published online: 12 August 2026; doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02292-zDifferent tropical tree species can vary in their ability to withstand drought — and so too, it seems, can distinct populations of the same tree species.
