Paleontologists from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology have reported a detailed scientific study of limb size evolution across the theropod-bird transition.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden and their collaborators investigated the gene function of PsFLP using virus-induced gene silencing technology.

A team led by Prof. YE Hong from the University of Science and Technology of China has developed a radiative transfer model for plant leaves in the thermal infrared (TIR) spectrum, and unveiled the underlying mechanism governing the correlation between plant leaves' thermal infrared reflectance characteristics and their water content based on this model.

Recently, a research group led by Prof. HE Shunping from the lnstitute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy Sciences used whole-genome sequences of 18 representative species spanning all major lineages of the radiation of Triplophysa to explore their phylogenetic relationships, and gained deeper insights into the evolutionary processes.

Prof. YANG Huangtian's team from Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the collaborators developed a strategy to promote cardiac repair with engineered mono- and dual-human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs)-derived cardiovascular progenitors (hCVPCs)- and cardiomyocytes (hCMs)-seeding ECM patches.

A team led by Prof. LI Yu from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health, and the collaborators, identified a novel mechanism for the HIF prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 3 (PHD3)-dependent proline hydroxylation of cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB)-regulated transcriptional coactivator 2 (CRTC2) in the regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis.

A research team led by Prof. JIANG Yi from the Institute of Psychology used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying the processing of multidimensional BM attributes in the human brain.

Recently, an international team led by Prof. SU Guohuan from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed the invasion mechanisms of freshwater fish via a trait-based analysis on the North American freshwater fish fauna.

A research group led by Prof. SHAO Zhen from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health and the collaborators charted a high-resolution roadmap for the process of pancreatic β cell regeneration by in vivo transdifferentiation from adult acinar cells using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology.

Recently, a research team led by Prof. SUN Baolin from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed the mechanism of transcriptional regulation via S-nitrosylation for vancomycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus).

A research team from the Bio-Med Big Data Center, Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health (SINH) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and their collaborators, developed a Spatial Multimodal Data Browser (SMDB).

Drs. LIU Pingping and ZHANG Xuan led by HAN Buxin from the Institute of Psychology have investigated the effects of familiarity and age on residents' cooperation, as well as the mediating roles of reputation concern and social distance.
