A Stanford-led study published in Science presents the first systematic global catalog of earthquakes originating in the continental mantle, identifying 459 events since 1990 and revealing unexpected clustering beneath the Himalayas and the Bering Strait.

Stanford bioengineers publish a reverse-translation chemistry in Nature Biotechnology that converts peptides into DNA barcodes, achieving single-molecule resolution up to 1,000 times more sensitive than mass spectrometry.
