Recently, the latest research findingsin the realm of photo-triggered synergistic treatment of thrombotic diseases, conducted by Ji Qi, Deling Kong et al. from the State Key Laboratory of Medicinal Chemical Biology and the College of Life Sciences at Nankai University, were published in Nature Communications, a world-renowned journal, with the title “Near-infrared-II photoacoustic imaging and photo-triggered synergistic treatment of thrombosis via fibrin-specific homopolymer nanoparticles”. The
Recently, the team led by Professor Lei Wang of Nankai University discovered that three major meningitis-causing bacteria exploit the same mechanism to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and illustrated the molecular mechanism in detail. Bacterial meningitis has a high fatality rate and serious sequela, and lacks specific treatment methods. The research team revealed for the first time the mechanism by which bacteria penetrate the BBB, and this is of great significance for meningitis preve
The latest research results made by Nankai University were published online in top international journal Scienceunder the title of “Self-sustaining personal all-day thermoregulatory clothing using only sunlight”. This is the second Sciencepaper published by Nankai University in less than a month, and it is also the third Sciencepaper published by the team led by Professor Chen Yongsheng from the College of Chemistry, Nankai University.The research team led by Professor Chen Yongsheng from the Co
Recently, progress was made in addressing the basic problems of quantum physics by the research team led by Professor Jingling Chenfrom the Theoretical Physics Division of the Chern Institute of Mathematics at Nankai University. The research team first proposed the concept of spin angular-momentum waves internationally, and designed athoughtexperimentto generate and detect the spin angular-momentum waves, based on the oscillation of spin angular momentum of Dirac electron. On December 28, 2023,
The award ceremony of the 2023 Green Asia Pacific Environmental Protection Achievement Award was held in Hong Kong. Professor Yu Hongbing of the College of Environmental Science and Engineering of Nankai University won the “Environmental Protection Lifetime Achievement Award”.Yu Hongbing has been engaged in cleaner production work for over 30 years, put forward the theory of whole-process systematic energy conservation and emission reduction technology, created a Chinese management system for cl
In recent years, haploid stem cells derived from mammals have shown significant advantages in screening key functional genes due to single-genome and self-renewal features. Research Fellow Shuai Ling from the State Key Laboratory of Medicinal Chemical Biology, College of Pharmacy at Nankai University has been working in the field of haploid stem cell and genetic screening research for more than ten years. He has successively developed various types of lineage-specific haploid stem cells, includi
