A research team from the School of Ecology at Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU) has provided a pioneering explanation for the global distribution of tree diversity, revealing how complex "social networks" among trees sustain life in the world’s most diverse forests.The study, led by Professor Chengjin Chu and published online in Nature on April 29, marks the first global-scale verification that "h...
A collaborative study led by Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU) has systematically identified a critical "advantageous" mutation in the Ebola virus (EBOV) that emerged during the devastating 2018–2020 epidemic. The findings, published on January 23 in the prestigious journal Cell, offer vital scientific clues for understanding viral evolution and developing broad-spectrum antiviral strategies.The s...
On January 12, Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU), in partnership with a commercial Chinese aerospace enterprise CAS Space, successfully completed a flight test for verifying key technologies of reusable launch vehicles. The test validated an online-trajectory-optimization-based guidance technique under a flight profile with an altitude above 100 kilometers, providing strong support for China's deve...
On January 14, 2026, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) confirmed that 2025 was among the three warmest years on record, extending a streak of exceptionally high global temperatures.One of the pillars of the this authoritative analysis is the China-MST 3.0 dataset, a global surface temperature benchmark independently developed by a research team from Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU).The C...
A collaborative team led by Professor Chaoyun Pan from the Zhongshan School of Medicine has identified a neuro-immune-metabolic axis that drives chemoresistance, suggesting fluoxetine as a novel chemosensitizer.Ovarian cancer remains one of the most formidable challenges in women's health, claiming approximately 200,000 lives annually. While initial responses to cytoreductive surgery and platin...
Sleep staging is a critical component in assessing sleep quality and diagnosing sleep-related brain disorders. In alignment with the "China Brain Project" and the strategic goals for brain science in the upcoming national "15th Five-Year Plan," the demand for precise, non-invasive, and home-based brain function assessment has reached a new height at the intersection of neuroscience and artifici...
