Recently, researchers from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences successfully developed China's first adaptive hydrogel biomimetic suction disc. This breakthrough addresses key technological challenges in underwater grasping and fine manipulation, providing crucial technical support for related industrial upgrades.
A groundbreaking experiment recreates Einstein's 1927 thought challenge, confirming fundamental quantum principle. In a landmark study that brings a definitive close to one of the most famous debates in modern physics, a team of Chinese scientists has experimentally validated Niels Bohr's core quantum principle, demonstrating that a particle's path and its wave-like behavior are fundamentally mutually exclusive – a notion Albert Einstein famously resisted.
This year's newly elected academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said at the certificate awarding ceremony on Friday that they would leverage their research to drive economic development and address the pressing needs of the country. In November, the CAS announced the election of 73 new members from China, bringing the total CAS number to 908.
A research team led by the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences has recently mapped a comprehensive landscape of natural aging in rhesus monkeys, covering all major organ systems across multiple molecular dimensions, the China Science Daily reported on Thursday.
China on Wednesday released reports on global research hotspots and emerging frontiers in 2025 and selected 128 research frontiers that have performed actively or developed rapidly during this year. The two reports, jointly issued by the Institutes of Science and Development, the National Science Library, both under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the global analytics firm Clarivate, seek to analyze major frontier scientific breakthroughs that may influence the world's future development, and support China's national strategy for sci-tech innovation.
Amid global climate change, Chinese scientists have recently made significant progress in understanding the heat tolerance mechanisms in rice, identifying its heat-tolerant genes, and developing new varieties suited to future climates. Their study involved field trials simulating high-temperature conditions, where the scientists identified two key regulatory factors in rice that sense and respond to heat.
