Targeted stimulation of motor cortex ensembles drives learned movements

Nature, Published online: 14 October 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11174-3

Optogenetic stimulation of motor-cortex neuron ensembles shows that precisely timed activity in the primary motor cortex can generate learned neural patterns and movements, demonstrating an active role in skilled motor control.

Structures and inhibition of the Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever virus polymerase

Nature, Published online: 22 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10701-6

Structural studies of Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) polymerase reveal the structural basis of CCHFV RNA synthesis and highlight druggable sites for designing both nucleoside antivirals and non-nucleoside antivirals.

CRISPR–Cas regulates expression of embedded anti-phage defence systems

Nature, Published online: 22 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10833-9

CRISPR–Cas systems transcriptionally tune diverse innate defences using CRISPR RNA-like guides to balance antiviral protection with fitness, and hyperactivate these defences when compromised, establishing a layered bacterial ‘immunity guard’ network.
