We discover diamonds in candle flames in this week's Naked Scientists NewsFlash, but sadly, only a few atoms across! In other news we hear about a new technique for discovering which old drugs will treat existing diseases, how artificial chromosomes may help to treat a type of muscular dystrophy, and why solar seismology can forecast sunspots.
