On 4 November 1869, the first issue of Nature made its way into the world. Its ambition was intellectually bold and commercially risky: to bring news of the latest discoveries and inventions to scientists and the public alike. 150 years on, Nature publishes more than 850 research papers and 3,000 articles of news, opinion and analysis each year, and reaching around 4 million readers online each month.

First, to serve scientists through prompt publication of significant advances in any branch of science, and to provide a forum for the reporting and discussion of news and issues concerning science. Second, to ensure that the results of science are rapidly disseminated to the public throughout the world, in a fashion that conveys their significance for knowledge, culture and daily life.

We work to ensure widespread knowledge of the research published in Nature. We know the power of research to influence policymaking for the better. And that’蝉 why, in appropriate cases, we don’t just amplify the research through news coverage, but also produce Policy Briefs aimed specifically at translating research for policymakers.

The face behind Nature

“It is an incredible honour to be at the helm of Nature — a journal which over its 150-year history has published some of the most influential, as well as most elegant, science. We’ve published findings that have changed how we think about the evolution of our own species, about the dynamics and origins of the universe and about the beginnings of life and matter itself. ”
