Research conducted by biological scientists at College of Science, Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) and Nanjing Agricultural University (NJAU) has found a new regulatory mechanism for plant photomorphogenesis.

Research led by the Shenzhen Institute of Quantum Science and Engineering (SIQSE) and the Department of Physics has seen significant experimental progress in d​etecting the quantum phase transitions with out-of-time-ordered correlations (OTOC). Their research outcomes were published in the high-impact academic journal, Physical Review Letters (PRL) (IF =8.39).

In current energy cycle systems, more than 60% of energy is dissipated as waste heat. Low-grade and low-quality heat make up 50% of total waste heat. Thermoelectric (TE) technology can effectively gather and re-use low-temperature waste heat due to its ability to direc​t converting heat into electricity or vice versa. Researchers at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) have continued to improve thermoelectricity.

New research conducted by an international set of researchers may have found a new method of developing medical-grade chemical without using heavy metals. It could see drug development become cheaper, less dangerous, and better for the environment.

The development of molecular recognition technology that mimics nature has been progressed following a series of studies by researchers at Dept. of Chemistry, Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech).

A centuries-old consensus on body weight regulation and middle-age spread may have just been broken by researchers at Dept. of Biology, College of Science. Their theory, called “leanocentric locking-point theory on fat mass homeostasis,” was published in iScience, a multidisciplinary journal from the Cell Press series.
