Researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have conducted a study revealing the robust weakening of the CGT under global warming and elucidating its effects on regional heatwaves.

A research team led by Profs. LI Ang and WANG Xiaoqun from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed TransBrain, a computational framework that achieves high-precision whole-brain phenotype mapping between humans and mice for the first time.

A research team from the Kunming Institute of Zoology has demonstrated for the first time in non-human primates that auditory stimulation at 40-Hz significantly elevates β-amyloid levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of aged rhesus monkeys, with this effect persisting for over five weeks.

A new study led by Prof. Douglas W. Yu from the Kunming Institute of Zoology demonstrates that environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can deliver high-quality, large-scale species distribution data in complex mountain landscapes, addressing a critical global challenge for achieving the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework goals.

A research team led by Prof. LAI Ren from the Kunming Institute of Zoology has found that lactoferrin is a central regulator of pregnancy-associated hypercoagulability. They demonstrated that estrogen significantly increases lactoferrin levels, which enhances the activity of coagulation factor XIa (FXIa) and promotes thrombin generation and thrombus formation.

A research team from the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Lanzhou University has obtained important experimental evidence for revealing brain memory mechanisms and developing new-type neuromorphic computing.

A new study led by Prof. LI Yaoming from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed the driving mechanisms and environmental thresholds that govern the storage of particulate organic carbon and mineral-associated organic carbon in Central Asian grasslands.

Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences summarized how compound leaves develop. Their study offers a clearer view of the genetic “toolkit” that shapes these elaborate leaves.

A research team led by Prof. TAN Weihong and Prof. WU Qin from the Hangzhou Institute of Medicine (HIM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a pioneering, multi-modal platform called SPARK-seq for the large-scale, systematic study of aptamer–target interactions.

A study led by ZHU Yingjie from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered that activating the lateral septum (LS) inhibits hedonic feeding. The LS acts as a "brake system" within the brain's feeding-regulation network and represents a potential target for preventing and treating obesity.

A study led by Prof. LUO Daji's team from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed that the swamp eel’s gonads contain microbial communities as rich as those found in the gut, skin, and blood, and more than half of these gonadal bacteria originate from the gut and bloodstream, suggesting an intriguing internal migration of microbes.

Drawing inspiration from the remarkable adaptability of the human eye, researchers from the Institute of Metal Research have developed a novel phototransistor with tunable sensitivity. This breakthrough provides an efficient solution for detecting low-contrast targets in complex visual environments, which is a critical challenge for advanced machine vision systems in applications such as precision guidance and smart surveillance.

A research team from the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a surface-reconstructed NiFe hydroxide (NiFe-LDH-R) that drives high-rate NO₃^--to-NH₃ conversion, and a membrane-free bipolar electrosynthesis configuration that delivers Faradaic efficiency exceeding 100%.

Spring green-up has advanced across much of the Northern Hemisphere, but it still shows little change or even delays in some regions, despite global warming. A new study reveals that soil freeze–thaw cycles as an overlooked process can reshape spring green-up each year.

An international team of experts led by Profs. MA Keping and LIU Xiaojuan from the Institute of Botany has synthesized three decades of global forest biodiversity experiments. Their study provides ecological insights and shows that tree species diversity is a fundamental driver of ecosystem integrity.

Researchers at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have made an important breakthrough by developing a three-dimensional electrical imaging technique that directly reveals how defect passivation treatments work in perovskite films.

Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Ghent University introduced dosage-sensitive genes as evolutionary markers for detecting ancient whole-genome duplications. These genes typically encode core components of protein complexes, signaling pathways, or regulatory networks.

A research team led by Prof. LI Xianfeng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a novel bromine-based two-electron transfer reaction system, and demonstrated a long-life zinc-bromine flow battery by using this system.
