A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Hui from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences quantified the adaptive mechanisms and sensitivity thresholds that govern fishery stock recovery under multiple stressors over a long time scale.

A research team led by Profs. XU Tao and JI Wei from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a three-dimensional interferometric localization microscope called repetitive optical selective exposure in 3D (ROSE-3D), achieving camera-based isotropic nanoscale resolution in 3D.

A research team led by Prof. JIANG Ling and Prof. LI Gang from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with Prof. LI Jun from Tsinghua University, experimentally determined the structure motifs of water undecamer cluster (H₂O)₁₁.

A research team led by Prof. LONG Hao from the Nanjing Institute of Geography and Limnology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, drilled a 300.8-meter-long lacustrine sediment core in the Datong Basin of Shanxi Province, located in mid-latitude East Asia (Northern China). By reconstructing over 5.7 million years of Earth's history, the researchers revealed that the "waviness" of the Westerly Jet Stream is the primary driver of mid-latitude climate variability.

A research team from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology revealed how psychological stress experienced by mothers before conception shape the long-term emotional behaviors of their offspring, and uncovered a brain-body mechanism linking maternal emotional states to adult behavioral outcomes in a sex-specific manner.

Researchers from Yunnan University, the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan have unveiled new insights into the fragmentation mechanisms of high-mass star-forming regions.

Microplastics, defined as plastic particles ≤ 5 mm in size, have emerged as a global environmental concern due to their widespread distribution and potential toxicity to ecosystems and human health. While research on microplastics has traditionally focused on marine environments, growing evidence suggests that terrestrial ecosystems—particularly island soils—may serve as important yet underrecognized reservoirs of microplastic pollution.

A research team from the Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a basalt fiber/cotton fiber composite yarn that integrates weavability with multiple functional properties.

​A new study led by Dr. JIANG Yi from the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed the first clear evidence that visual awareness acts as a "conductor" that refines the speed, precision, and neural coordination of attentional rhythmic sampling.

A team led by Prof. XU Jun from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and collaborators from Peking University, University of Essex and Huazhong Agricultural University, uncovered a novel mechanism by which climate warming impedes the recovery of submerged plants through intensified herbivory during insect outbreaks.

An international team of astronomers led by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has reported the first comprehensive study of C/2025 D1 (Groeller), a comet that will make the most distant closest approach to the Sun of any known comet.

An international team of astronomers from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory and Westlake University has developed a novel galaxy "dissection" technique that enables precise analysis of the distinct components within barred spiral galaxies.

A joint research team from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory and Sun Yat-sen University has improved the quality of long-term light curves of active galactic nuclei. By stacking multi-epoch imaging data from the Zwicky Transient Facility, the researchers effectively enhanced the signal-to-noise ratio of the observational data, enabling high-quality reconstruction of AGN light curves that were previously inaccessible due to their intrinsic faintness.

A joint research team from the Institute of Metal Research and Zhengzhou University has achieved power conversion efficiency surpassing 20% in flexible modules capable of withstanding a range of external stresses. The study highlights the use of single-walled carbon nanotubes as window electrodes for scalable ​flexible perovskite solar modules.

A new study led by Dr. YANG Weibing from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Plant Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has discovered a hidden “molecular gatekeeper” that controls the stiffness of these walls, directly guiding the fate of plant stem cells.

Researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and their collaborators investigated dynamic interactions between preferential flow and matrix flow in rubber-associated forest systems within tropical regions, and explored their impacts on soil water storage and cycling.

Researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica and Shanghai Jiao Tong University obtained four inactive structures of EP2 and EP4 receptors bound to selective and dual antagonists, and revealed the selectivity and efficacy of EP2 and EP4 antagonists, as well as the “dual-warhead” binding mode of the dual antagonist TG6-129 with both EP2 and EP4.

A team of scientists from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciencesrecently conducted a 50-year simulation of the Martian dust cycle using the Global Open Planetary Atmospheric Model for Mars (GoMars). This new modelcanpredict key characteristics of the Martian dust cycle and global-scale dust storms.
