A few days ago, the "Top Ten Scientific and Technological Progress News in China in 2023" voted by the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences was announced. This event has been held for 23 consecutive years, and due to the fair and impartial selection of authoritative figures, this event has had a far-reaching impact in China and has become an important channel for the general public to understand the cutting-edge news of science and technology.
In 2023, the top 10 scientific and technological progress news has been selected, and many universities can be found, which also fully reflects the cutting-edge scientific research strength of universities. So, in the top ten news of China's scientific and technological progress in 2023, which universities are deeply involved and contributed?
**The nuclear power plant adopts high-temperature gas-cooled reactor technology, and the first high-temperature gas-cooled reactor demonstration nuclear power plant is led by China Huaneng, jointly built by Tsinghua University and China National Nuclear Corporation, with a localization rate of about 93%.
Tsinghua University, the first in China, has been in a leading position in many discipline evaluations.
This project involves a large number of disciplines and a large number of participating universities. However, domestic university professors entered the space station as astronauts and payload experts, and Gui Haichao, a professor and doctoral supervisor at the School of Astronautics of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, was the first one. This also fully reflects the participation and importance of Beihang in space missions.
Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has been rated A+ twice in a row in the discipline of aeronautics and astronautics science and technology, and its strength is also undoubted.
The research results of the team of academician Peng Lianmao and researcher Qiu Chenguang of Peking University have successfully overcome the international problem of metal and semiconductor contact in the two-dimensional field, and provide the possibility to break through the limitations of traditional transistors due to their proximity to physical limits.
Peking University's leading position in a number of science disciplines is a gap that other universities cannot bridge.
This is the result of the cooperation between Professor Wang Meng's team of Sun Yat-sen University and Tsinghua University, South China University of Technology and other units, and the results were published in the journal Nature.
In the fourth round of subject evaluation, Sun Yat-sen University's physics discipline was A-, Tsinghua University's A, and South China University of Technology's C+.
This project was completed by the team of academician Duan Baoyan of Xidian University, which is the world's first full-link, full-system SSPS ground verification system, and its main technical indicators are world-leading.
The information and communication engineering discipline of Xidian University is a national first-class key discipline, and it belongs to Class A disciplines in the last two rounds of discipline evaluation.
This was done by the team of Professor Sun Jinpeng of Shandong University and the team of researcher Li Qian of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and the relevant research results were published in Nature.
Shandong University is a traditional strong medical school (East Qilu), and Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine is an upstart, and its strength is not weak.
In addition, many universities have also participated in the discovery of alkali tolerance genes in China, the discovery of alkali tolerance genes to increase crop yields, the discovery of Tianwen-1 research results on Martian climate change, the drilling of China's first 10,000-meter-deep exploration well, and the detection of evidence of nanohertz gravitational waves in FAST.
