There is no chance of world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz and 22-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic meeting in an epic French Open final. That's because the two top guns were placed on the same side of the bracket in the French Open draw revealed Thursday. Top-seeded Alcaraz and third-seeded Djokovic could only face off if both reach the semifinals. No. 2 Daniil Medvedev of Russia is in the favorite's role on the other side of the bracket. Alcaraz, 20, has soared to the top of the ATP rankings and is now challenging Djokovic as the best player in the sport.

A robotic system capable of imaging and transferring the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans could replace hours of tedious lab work, according to a recent study. Laboratory workers spend untold hours every year manipulating C. elegans, a tiny nematode worm used in genetics research that reproduces quickly and is optically transparent. Often, the labor required to manage and manipulate the animals is a major bottleneck for using the worms to address questions in biology. Fang-Yen, Zihao (John) Li, Anthony Fouad and colleagues developed WormPicker, a robotic system capable of handling routine tasks, increasing the productivity of human researchers.
