Genesis of a complex disease p.412
The largest genome-wide analysis of schizophrenia performed so far has identified more than 100 genetic regions that contribute to disease risk, establishing new leads for understanding this form of mental illness. See Article p.421doi: 10.1038/nature13645
Rain on the parade p.413
An analysis of landforms in the Bolivian Andes suggests that surface uplift has shaped the climate and landscape. This contrasts with previous work suggesting that climate controls topography and deformation along the mountain range.doi: 10.1038/511413a
Fur seals signal their own decline p.414
Data on three generations of Antarctic fur seals suggest that climate change is reducing the survival of less-fit individuals with low genetic variation, but that overall seal numbers are falling. See Letter p.462doi: 10.1038/511414a
Cold carbon storage p.415
Lakes that form in thawing permafrost emit substantial amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. It emerges that large quantities of carbon can also be stored in sediments at the lake bottoms. See Letter p.452doi: 10.1038/nature13643
Fine-tuned amplification in cells p.417
The transcription factor Myc has been posited to cause a cell-wide increase in gene expression. But two studies show that Myc, when modulated by other transcription factors, can amplify select targets. See Letters p.483 and p.488doi: 10.1038/nature13518
Siphoning spins p.418
Topological insulators are materials known for their remarkable electron-transport properties. They now emerge as excellent sources of electron spins for manipulating tiny magnets. See Letter p.449doi: 10.1038/511418a

Jet acceleration of the fast molecular outflows in the Seyfert galaxy IC 5063 p.440
The observation of high-velocity warm molecular hydrogen in the galaxy IC 5063 supports the proposal that the powerful jets of particles launched by active galactic nuclei can both accelerate and heat the molecular outflows that influence the evolution of galaxies.doi: 10.1038/nature13520
