• We misspelled Tommaso Dorigo’s name in “Glimpses of the God particle” (3 March, p 8) and mistakenly promoted him to team leader. Also, CDF stands for Collider – not Collision – Detector at Fermilab.

• Our item headlined “Lack of sleep hits night owls hard” (17 March, p 19) pointed to the wrong group of people. In fact the long version of the PER3 gene is associated with early-rising “larks”, who are the group hardest-hit when deprived of sleep.
