<jats:p>In science news around the world this week, Spanish researchers have been fighting the closure of a biomedical research center, Indian scientists have sequenced the genome of the pigeon pea, a Chinese spacecraft docked with a space lab module for the first time, the $125 million New York Genome Center has been launched, two small earthquakes in the northwest of England earlier this year were found to have probably been triggered by hydraulic fracturing, and a 520-day mock Mars mission was completed.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Elements 110, 111, and 112 have officially been named. And mathematicians assessing team dynamics in basketball as a proxy for ant dynamics have found a winning strategy, one that depends on distributed leadership-akin to what ant colonies have.</jats:p>

<jats:p>This week's Newsmaker is Persis Drell, who will step down as director of SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory once her replacement has been found.</jats:p>

<jats:p>On 28 October, China's State Council unveiled a $5.5 billion initiative over 10 years to prevent and treat groundwater contamination. The project is long overdue, hydrologists say.</jats:p>

<jats:p>A new analysis, released last week, makes the most detailed case yet that certification by the Marine Stewardship Council, the world's biggest eco-label for sustainable seafood, does yield environmental benefits.</jats:p>

<jats:p>The National Science Foundation has given a $10.9 million grant to a U.S. Navy university to transform an A-10 Thunderbolt jet into an aircraft capable of probing the heart of heavy weather.</jats:p>

<jats:p> In an interview with <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> last week, neuroscientist Henry Markram defended his claim that it should be possible to model the human brain in silico within 10 years but painted a more nuanced picture of his goals. </jats:p>
