Nature Research Intelligence Topics in Nature Index

The Nature Research Intelligence Topics are created from networks of articles that cite each other, or articles that are very similar to each other, and we have over 40,000 topics, grouped into a 4-level hierarchy. On the Nature Index we highlight topics from the second level of this hierarchy that have sufficient publication volume to support rankings and collaboration insights.

Other topics can be explored via the topic explorer page. For each topic there is a topic overview that includes research activity, publication trends, key technical terms, and references.
