Nested sequents are a generalization of ordinary sequents to tree-like instead of list-like structures. They have been designed specifically to provide sound and complete deductive systems for modal logics between K and S5, but they have since then proved useful for various other logics that could also not be handled in ordinary Gentzen calculi. In this talk, I will present the formalism of nested sequents and some applications. If time permit, I will review one of our contributions, that is, how to apply the focusing technique to some of the nested sequent calculi, bringing forward fine synthetic normal forms for modal proofs.
