At the age of 70, renowned mathematician Professor Efim Zelmanov remains deeply passionate about teaching undergraduate students in Shenzhen in south China. Before class, he makes tea and answers questions. When he speaks about mathematics, he treats it not as a subject meant for geniuses, but as something deeply woven into everyday life. Zelmanov received the Fields Medal for solving a century-old problem on symmetry when he was only 39. The Fields Medal is the highest honor in mathematics, presented every four years at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

A compact ultra-high voltage (UHV) testing system, independently developed in Hubei, central China, has been shipped to Dubai to facilitate offshore wind power projects.
When a university course becomes more than just a requirement on a transcript, and it transforms into a pathway for students to improve skills, a launchpad for innovation, and a nationally recognized model of excellence, something extraordinary is happening in the classroom. At the University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China (UNNC), British scientist Dr. Adam Rushworth has not only redefined how engineering is taught but is also pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in additive manufacturing.
Dr. Salvatore Aricò, an Italian biologist, ecologist, oceanographer and marine policy expert, has worked at the science-policy interface for nearly 30 years, contributing to initiatives such as the Pilot Analysis of Global Ecosystems, the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, as well as the Global Environment Outlook and Global Biodiversity Outlook.
China's Five-Year Plans are far more than economic planning documents. They are the outcome of a collective process that mobilizes thousands of experts, academics, officials and representatives from all levels of the Communist Party of China (CPC), from the most remote provinces to the central organs of power in Beijing. Their formulation involves millions of people through consultations, sectoral studies and strategic debates. This participatory and scientific approach ensures that the plan is not an imposed decree, but a shared roadmap embraced by society as a whole.
"Global cooperation is not a luxury. It is a necessity.
