The Einstein Foundation Berlin has announced an international award to provide publicity for researchers and institutions seeking to improve the quality of their Research. Evidence-based studies and open access to new findings are more important than ever, as the COVID-19 pandemic has once again shown. Against this background, the Einstein Foundation has launched the €500,000 Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research the first prize to recognise outstanding efforts that enhance the rigor, reliability, robustness and transparency of work undertaken. The award is funded by the Damp Stiftung, with Nature Research supporting the call for applications and helping to establish the award. The first awardees will be announced in November 2021 in Berlin.

Sebastian Lobentanzer of Goethe University, Frankfurt, has been studying small RNA dynamics in various contexts using bioinformatic methods. Recently, small RNAs have become more and more interesting for researchers, primarily because of their extensive regulatory functions. To examine these functions in stroke, Lobentanzer joined Katarzyna Winek of Hebrew University, Jerusalem, to study microRNAs and tRNA fragments in blood samples from ischemic stroke patients collected at Charité, Berlin. tRNA fragments, which until now were only thought to be debris of the amino acid-transporting tRNAs, have recently been shown to possess biological functions; naturally, we were very interested in that, explains the pharmacologist.
