China has achieved a 35.6 tesla all-superconducting magnet in an experiment facility, setting a new record, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said on Tuesday. The all-superconducting magnet, with a central magnetic field of 35.6 tesla and a usable aperture of 35 millimeters was conducted with the Synergetic Extreme Condition User Facility. It is a user magnet designed to support domestic and international research teams in conducting cutting-edge studies.

China on Tuesday unveiled its first School of Space Exploration to cultivate more leading talents in the aerospace field. Established by the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), the school will focus on cutting-edge fields such as interstellar propulsion, deep-space communication and navigation, and space science, aiming to cultivate urgently-needed interdisciplinary professionals.

As climate change accelerates across cold regions, particularly the Arctic and Pan-Arctic, scientists from China and Finland are strengthening a long-term research partnership. The collaboration combines advanced remote-sensing technology with Finland's world-leading expertise in snow and ice science. Launched in 2018, the joint research program has already produced key breakthroughs in snow physics and microwave remote sensing. CGTN's Liu Jiaxin speaks with a Chinese scientist involved in this cross-border scientific effort.

The Institute of Physics (IOP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), released on Monday the world's first strategic research report focusing on the development of high-temperature superconducting tapes, providing a clear roadmap for the large-scale application of high-temperature superconducting materials.

A new study has revealed that observing Earth from the moon serves as a powerful way of seeing the planet's true, global radiation signature, cutting through the "noise" of local weather to capture its core climate patterns. Published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, this new research endeavor confirms that a moon-based platform effectively overcomes these limitations by providing a permanent, full-disk view of the planet.

For heart patients, the prospect of a lifetime use pacemaker may soon become a reality. A Chinese research team has developed a self-powering pacemaker that generates electricity from the heart's own beats, potentially offering heart patients a lifetime use device and addressing the challenge of battery depletion in medical engineering. The study was recently published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering.

China has successfully conducted its first metal 3D printing experiment in space, a significant leap forward for its in-orbit manufacturing capabilities. The breakthrough experiment was performed by a retrievable scientific payload developed by the Institute of Mechanics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), the CAS announced on Saturday.

Chinese researchers recently made a breakthrough in ferroelectric materials that promises to dramatically increase information storage density. Their findings were on Friday published in the journal Science.

A group of Chinese researchers has revealed the dynamic formation process of gold nanoparticles on pyrite surfaces, according to a research article published on Thursday in the journal PNAS. Their study shows that a unique "dense liquid layer" at the interface between pyrite and water acts as a "nano-factory," promoting the nucleation, growth and enrichment of gold even in fluids with extremely low gold concentrations, such as 10 parts per billion.

A research team led by Prof. BAI Shuo from the Institute of Process Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has pioneered a fully biodegradable, self-powered implantable electrical stimulation system designed to enhance muscle repair.

A group of Chinese researchers has achieved a breakthrough in refrigeration technology by discovering a new cooling effect that can help simultaneously realize low-carbon emission, high cooling capacity and high heat transfer efficiency.

In late Dec 2025, a diverse group of young Chinese explorers, led by CAS scientist Wang Feiteng, visited Urumqi Glacier No. 1 in Xinjiang. This glacier, the closest to a major city, retreats 5 meters annually due to global warming, with its area having shrunk by 20% since 1959. Amid global glacier decline, the NGO Polar Hub launched the "Glacier Watch" project and set up monitoring stations. Using drones and AI, the young team collects data, develops virtual games, and advocates for glacier protection to raise public awareness.

Chinese researchers have engineered "smart living glue," which is composed of programmed bacteria that can navigate the gut, automatically find internal wounds and patch them up. This strategy offers a novel targeted treatment approach for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

A Chinese research team has achieved a major advance in the precise regulation of protein degradation in living organisms, opening new avenues for therapeutic strategies against diseases ranging from cancer to neurodegenerative disorders.

To help EV drivers be more confident of the endurance mileage of their cars, the researchers from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), the Chinese Academy of Sciences, figured out a method for calculating energy consumption and state of health based on real vehicle operation data, according to a research article published in the journal Applied Energy.

China is accelerating the transition of its nuclear fusion program from fundamental research to large-scale engineering, as construction of the Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST) gains momentum.

Through studying the observation data of China's gigantic radio telescope located in the country's southwestern Guizhou Province, an international research team has uncovered compelling new evidence supporting a binary-system origin for at least some fast radio bursts (FRBs), one of the most enigmatic phenomena in modern astrophysics.

In a landmark discovery that bridges nearly a century of theoretical physics, a Chinese research team has successfully captured the first direct evidence of the Migdal effect, a breakthrough with profound implications for probing dark matter — the invisible substance thought to make up roughly 85 percent of the universe.
