Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden have reviewed the ethnopharmacological significance of some valuable Blechnum plants characterized by the leathery fronds with circinate venation, simple lamina, and sometimes 1-pinnatifid or 1-pinnate stalks and leaf blades.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) analyzed the key factors affecting the distribution of the two giant honeybee species (Apis laboriosa and Apis dorsata), as well as their potential suitable areas and possible co-existence regional changes under the global climate change.

In a recent study, Prof. ZHANG Ping from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) has reviewed food and nutrition factors that affect gut health by influencing the interplay of the gut microbiome with the epithelium and intestinal mucosal immune system.

Novel Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) drugs were designed and industrially prepared by researchers at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science through molecular design, strain construction, isolation and purification and animal experiments,

Dr. CHEN Yong's team from the Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the collaborators, reported the structural basis for product specificities of MLL family methyltransferases.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) tried to examine and compare the response of above and belowground traits, and patterns of biomass allocation to soil moisture and plant competition treatments.

Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden, together with collaborators from Cornell University and Zhejiang University, have generated the chromosome-scale reference genomes of Solanum habrochaites and S. galapagense by combining PacBio HiFi reads and Hi-C sequencing data.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) tried to explore how emotions of fear or hope affect curriculum-based climate change education. They designed a curriculum focusing on factual knowledge of the climatic change, coupled with a video clip pro for the knowledge lectures intended to instill emotions of fear or hope as manipulated treatments.

Ballroom dance is an intoxicating form of art and sport that helps improve sensorimotor skills, cognitive levels and emotional communication. A research team led by Dr. HU Li and Dr. KONG Yazhuo from the Institute of Psychology has found behavioral and brain mechanism evidence that empathy would be promoted with long-term ballroom dance training.

In a recent study, Prof. YUAN Xiangyong, Prof. JIANG Yi and their colleagues from the Institute of Psychology have systematically manipulated the movement alignment of biological entities and explored whether perceived social bonds that implicitly serve as a contextual factor could bias human perception about the movement of one individual among the group to which he or she belongs.

Adopting the second-generation clinical assessments of negative symptoms, Dr. Raymond Chan's team from the Institute of Psychology and Prof. YI Zheng hui's team from the Shanghai Mental Health Center, togethers with collaborators from Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, have investigated the latent structure of negative symptoms in schizophrenia patients.

A research group led by Prof. XIE Ping from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences illustrated the novel molecular mechanisms associated with hydration and adhesiveness of freshwater fish eggs, and identified critical molecular mechanisms involved in the adaptive radiation of endemic East Asian cyprinids
