| A research team from the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has demonstrated for the first time in non-human primates that auditory stimulation at 40-Hz significantly elevates β-amyloid levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of aged rhesus monkeys, with this effect persisting for over five weeks.The study, published in PNAS on January 5, provides the first n... more |

| A groundbreaking study led by Prof. Douglas W. Yu at the Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has ushered in a new era for biodiversity monitoring in complex mountain ecosystems. Published in Ecology Letters, the research demonstrates how environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding can deliver high-quality, large-scale species distribution data efficiently—addressing a critica... more |

| The perinatal period is characterized by a critical physiological challenge: the high risk of hemorrhage during delivery. Simultaneously, pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality, with risks increasing significantly during pregnancy and the early postpartum period. This creates a complex "bleeding-thrombosis" trade-off regardi... more |

| A study published in Avian Research demonstrates that the Hide-in-Bird Pond (HIBP) model—a community-based grassroots avitourism initiative where local communities establish artificial ponds and feeding stations to attract avian species for non-invasive observation and photography—has proliferated rapidly across China. This model supports substantial avian diversity while concurrently generat... more |

| A research team led by Professors Li Ming and Xiao Xiao from the Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has published the largest genetic study of bipolar disorder (BD) across East Asian and European populations. The findings, published in Nature Neuroscience on 25 November, provide critical insights into the genetic basis and cell-type-specific mechanisms of BD.The study in... more |
