The U.S. National Science Foundation is investing $90 million over five years to establish three new Science and Technology Centers, supporting large-scale research collaborations in areas including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, fusion energy and robotics. The three NSF Science and Technology Centers (STCs) will bring together researchers from universities, national laboratories, industry and other organizations to pursue large, interdisciplinary research projects. Each center will receive approximately $6 million annually for five years, with the possibility of competing for up to five additional years of funding. The new centers are intended to strengthen U.S. research capacity while training students and early-career researchers in emerging scientific and technological fields. “Maintaining the United States’ leadership in science and technology requires bold research, strong partnerships, and a skilled workforce,” said Brian Stone, performing the duties of NSF director. He said the centers would help researchers pursue opportunities created by advances in foundational science and technology while developing the talent and technologies needed to translate research into practical applications. Established in 1987, the NSF STC program has supported large-scale, collaborative research aimed at opening new areas of scientific discovery and advancing emerging technologies. According to NSF, previous centers have contributed to the development of new research fields, industry partnerships and startup companies, while training generations of researchers and innovators. The program is designed for research challenges that require expertise across multiple institutions and disciplines. In addition to conducting high-risk, foundational research, the centers are expected to work with industry and other partners to move promising discoveries toward real-world applications. The three newly funded centers are:TEMPEST: Tackling the Physics of TurbulenceLed by Michigan State University, the Center for Transformative Explorations in Multi-Physics and Engineering of Scientific Turbulence (TEMPEST) will focus on one of the longstanding challenges in physics and engineering: understanding and controlling turbulence. Turbulence refers to the chaotic, multiscale motion of fluids and plasmas. It is important to applications ranging from fusion energy to national security, but researchers still have difficulty predicting how complex turbulent systems behave across different scales. TEMPEST will combine experimental research, mathematical modeling, high-performance computing and artificial intelligence to develop more accurate, physics-based models of turbulence. The researchers hope the work can contribute to fusion energy research while strengthening the scientific foundations of technologies relevant to national security and other areas of engineering. GENIE: Engineering the Genome in Three DimensionsLed by Northwestern University, the Center for Genome Intelligence Engineering (GENIE) will investigate how the three-dimensional organization of DNA influences cell identity and function. Researchers will study how DNA is arranged within cells and how changes in that organization can contribute to diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer. The center aims to develop technologies for engineering DNA in three dimensions and to use that knowledge to understand how cells and tissues respond to damage. Ultimately, the research could contribute to approaches for preserving cellular function, restoring damaged biological systems and developing new applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. Human-Robot Co-AdaptationLed by The University of Texas at Austin, the Center for Human and Robot Co-Adaptation will examine how humans and robots can safely and effectively adapt to one another as robots become more common in homes, hospitals, workplaces and public spaces. The center will bring together robotics, artificial intelligence and human-factors research to develop systems that allow robots to learn from people, understand individual needs and preferences, and adapt to changing environments and users. Researchers will focus on robots with greater “embodied intelligence”—systems capable of interacting with people and adapting both physically and cognitively to their surroundings. The goal is to develop robotic technologies that can be used safely and effectively in areas such as independent living, health care and other human-centered services. Together, the three centers represent NSF’s strategy of using long-term, cross-institutional research to address problems that span traditional disciplinary boundaries. They also highlight the growing role of universities in connecting fundamental research with emerging technologies and workforce development. By combining university research with expertise from national laboratories, industry and other partners, the NSF STC program seeks to create research environments in which students and early-career scientists can gain experience working on complex problems at the intersection of science, engineering and technology. The announcement follows NSF’s recent investment of $290 million in eight research institutes focused on quantum science and technology. The institutes involve researchers from academia, government and industry across 19 states and 36 higher education institutions, further expanding the agency’s support for large-scale, collaborative research in emerging areas of science and technology.
Renowned microbiologist Bonnie Bassler, the Andrew K. Golden University Professor at Princeton University and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, has been awarded the Royal Society’s 2026 Copley Medal, the world’s oldest scientific prize. Bassler is among 28 scientists and researchers recognized this year by the Royal Society for contributions to scientific discovery, public engagement and research culture. The awards were announced Aug. 27. The Copley Medal is the Royal Society’s most prestigious scientific award. Established in 1731, it recognizes sustained and outstanding achievements in any field of science and carries a £25,000 prize. Previous recipients include Nobel laureate Dorothy Hodgkin, Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Jocelyn Bell Burnell and Charles Darwin. Bassler was recognized for research that has transformed scientists’ understanding of how bacteria communicate and coordinate their behavior. Her work has shown that single-celled bacteria are capable of acting collectively by exchanging chemical signals through a process known as quorum sensing. Rather than functioning solely as individual organisms, bacteria can use these signaling systems to detect the presence of other cells, coordinate behavior and respond collectively to changes in their environment. The research has implications for medicine as well as basic microbiology. By revealing how bacteria communicate, Bassler’s work has opened up the possibility of developing therapies that disrupt bacterial signaling and potentially target disease-causing bacteria without relying solely on conventional antibiotics. Sir Paul Nurse, president of the Royal Society, said Bassler’s research had “transformed our understanding of how bacteria communicate with each other.” He added that her discoveries could contribute to the development of drugs that serve as alternatives to antibiotics by interfering with bacterial communication systems. “This well-deserved award recognises her invaluable contribution to science, as well as the extraordinary creativity with which she approaches research,” Nurse said. The Copley Medal is the latest recognition for Bassler, whose research has helped establish quorum sensing as a major area of microbiological research. Her work has examined how bacteria use chemical signals to regulate collective behaviors, including processes that can contribute to infection. The Royal Society’s 2026 awards recognize 28 recipients across scientific research, public engagement and research culture. The Society said the recipients had made exceptional contributions to science and would help inspire future generations of researchers. “Celebrating excellence in science is core to the Society’s mission,” Nurse said, congratulating this year’s recipients.

On August 25, the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) announced a $290 million investment to support eight research institutes working to advance quantum science and technology in the United States. The investment expands NSF’s Quantum Leap Challenge Institutes program, which the agency launched in 2020 as part of its strategy to advance the goals of the 2018 National Quantum Initiative Act. Three of the eight institutes are newly established. The other five were created with previous NSF funding and will receive renewed support to continue their research. Each institute will receive approximately $28 million to $37 million over five years and will be led by researchers specializing in quantum information science. Since 2020, the institutes have made significant scientific advances across a range of fields, from developing new approaches to building quantum computers to creating quantum sensors that could eventually enable earlier detection of disease. The institutes also serve as collaborative hubs connecting academic researchers, federal science agencies, quantum technology companies and educational organizations. “For more than four decades, NSF has been laying the foundational groundwork of research and discovery that is powering today’s modern quantum computing, sensing and communication,” said Brian Stone, performing the duties of NSF director. “It’s time for focused activities to leverage that base of knowledge to drive us even farther forward to the benefit of all Americans. The NSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institutes are a next step for us in understanding the quantum world we live in.” Quantum technologies rely on phenomena such as quantum entanglement and superposition and have the potential to significantly outperform conventional, or “classical,” technologies in certain applications. For example, just as an electronic calculator can vastly outperform an abacus, a functional quantum computer could theoretically outperform today’s most powerful supercomputers on certain types of computational problems. Similarly, quantum sensors could enable scientists to precisely measure physical properties that are too subtle—or even impossible—for existing technologies to detect. The NSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institutes are focused on addressing the fundamental scientific and technological challenges that must be overcome for quantum devices to achieve such levels of performance. Each institute represents a broad collaboration spanning academia, government and industry. Collectively, the eight institutes will support researchers across 19 states and 36 institutions of higher education. Federal partners include multiple U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories, the U.S. Department of War and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. More than 30 U.S. companies are also partnering with the institutes to help accelerate the translation of fundamental research into technologies, products and techniques that can eventually be scaled for industrial use. NSF is also supporting education and workforce-development programs through the institutes in an effort to strengthen the future U.S. quantum workforce. Over the next five years, the eight institutes will collectively train hundreds of graduate students, undergraduate students and early-career researchers. Their programs will include partnerships with community colleges, universities, high schools and community science organizations. Training activities will include internships and summer schools, K-12 teacher programs and specialized mentorship opportunities with leading researchers in quantum information science. The Eight NSF Quantum Leap Challenge InstitutesNSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institute for Fault-Tolerant Quantum Systems, Architectures and Applications (NSF FTQSAA)Led by Harvard University, with UCLA Samueli and MIT serving as co-leads, FTQSAA is one of three newly established institutes under the expanded program.

On August 19, Unitree Robotics Co., Ltd., widely regarded as China’s leading publicly listed humanoid robotics company, debuted on the A-share market. The stock opened at RMB 1,100 per share, up 629.44%, sending its total market capitalization soaring to RMB 444.9 billion. Based on the IPO price of RMB 150.8 per share, investors allocated one lot (500 shares) would have made a profit of as much as RMB 474,600. Unitree Robotics is a high-performance general-purpose robotics company focused on the R&D, production, and sales of high-performance general-purpose humanoid robots, quadruped robots, robotic components, and embodied intelligence models. 2026 marks the tenth anniversary of the company’s founding. In its updated prospectus for its IPO and listing on the STAR Market, Unitree Robotics disclosed its latest financial results for the first half of 2026. From January to June 2026, the company recorded operating revenue of RMB 1.152 billion, up 48.54% year on year. Net profit attributable to shareholders reached RMB 274 million, compared with a net loss of RMB 32.0245 million in the same period last year. Net profit excluding non-recurring items was RMB 244 million, down 19.34% year on year. Behind Unitree Robotics’ listing is the rapid development of China’s embodied intelligence industry. According to the China Embodied Intelligence Industry Development Report (2026), China’s embodied intelligence market grew from RMB 213.3 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach RMB 1.09 trillion in 2026. At the same time, the enormous market size and highly promising industry outlook are rapidly driving strong demand for talent in embodied intelligence. Industry forecasts suggest that China’s embodied intelligence sector currently faces a talent shortage of as many as one million people. Wang Xingxing, founder and chairman of Unitree Robotics, said in an interview that the humanoid robotics industry essentially did not exist before, and that the relevant talent pool has only gradually developed in recent years. Both the quantity and quality of talent still need time to catch up with the industry’s growth. Asked specifically what kinds of talent are in short supply, his answer was: virtually every type of position is understaffed, with AI talent being the most critical. Unitree Robotics’ prospectus likewise identifies artificial intelligence, motion control, and perception and interaction as key R&D areas for future expansion. It also characterizes the general-purpose robotics industry as one that is “talent- and technology-intensive, with rapid innovation and iteration.” In fact, Unitree Robotics has long been exploring partnerships with universities to establish talent-development systems that can adapt to changes in the industry. In 2021, Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, Wang Xingxing’s alma mater, and Unitree Robotics established a Joint Laboratory for Intelligent Robotics. Since then, Unitree’s partnerships with universities have continued to evolve, expanding into industry colleges, innovation programs, and specialized minor programs in embodied intelligence. To date, Unitree has established industry colleges in more than a dozen Chinese cities, including Qingdao, Liuzhou, Zhengzhou, Jiaozuo, Hefei, Xiamen, Suzhou, Ningbo, Guangzhou, and Wuhan. Most of these cities share a common characteristic: strong manufacturing foundations and abundant application scenarios for robotics. Establishing industry colleges in major manufacturing hubs serves two purposes. On the one hand, they can cultivate the application-oriented talent that companies need. On the other, educational partnerships can help companies build deeper connections with local industries and university research ecosystems. Unitree’s prospectus shows that in the first three quarters of 2025, research and education applications accounted for 73.6% of the company’s humanoid robot revenue, making this by far its largest application segment. In the early stages of the general-purpose robotics industry, customers in research and education use robots for application development, scenario validation, and training—laying the groundwork for large-scale adoption in consumer and industrial applications. In other words, before robots can truly enter complex environments such as factories and homes, universities and research institutions serve not only as venues for technology validation but also as important testing grounds for robots on their path toward commercialization. In this way, Unitree’s university partnerships can gradually evolve beyond individual collaborations, becoming an integral part of broader industrial development strategies at the city level.
The Future Science Prize announced the laureates of 2026 on August 13th. Hong Zhang receives the Future Science Prize in life sciences for his pioneering contributions to the mechanism and physiological function of autophagy specific in multicellular organisms. Dongyuan Zhao receives the Future Science Prize in physical sciences for pioneering contributions to mesoporous materials in the context of synthetic control, mechanistic understanding, and industrial application. Xinyi Yuan receives the Future Science Prize in mathematics and computer science, for his fundamental contributions to arithmetic geometry, particularly for developing the theory of arithmetic bigness in Arakelov geometry and for its groundbreaking applications to the uniform Bogomolov conjecture and the uniform Mordell conjecture. Hong Zhang — Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences Hong Zhang has made a series of pioneering discoveries concerning the molecular mechanisms of autophagy unique to multicellular organisms. Autophagy is a fundamental cellular degradation and recycling process in which cells form double-membrane vesicles known as autophagosomes to transport proteins, organelles, and pathogens to lysosomes for degradation. The concept of “autophagy” was first proposed by Christian de Duve in 1963. Later, Yoshinori Ohsumi identified the core autophagy genes (ATG genes) in the single-celled organism yeast. Zhang pioneered the use of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as a model to investigate the molecular mechanisms of autophagy in higher organisms. Building on a landmark paper published in Cell in 2010 and a subsequent series of studies, he discovered a group of autophagy genes found exclusively in multicellular organisms and named them EPG genes. Zhang elucidated the complex molecular pathways specific to animal autophagy and revealed the fundamental mechanisms through which autophagy regulates organismal development, physiological homeostasis, and human disease. His work has significantly deepened our understanding of autophagy regulation in higher organisms. Born in Anhui, China, in 1969, Zhang is a professor at the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He received his Ph.D. from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the United States in 2001. Dongyuan Zhao — Fudan University Mesoporous materials, with pore sizes ranging from approximately 2 to 50 nanometers, play important roles in catalysis, energy conversion and storage, environmental remediation, biomedicine, and other fields. Developing mesoporous materials with precisely controlled pore structures, tunable compositions, and diverse functionalities has long been a major goal in chemistry and materials science. Before the end of the 20th century, researchers could synthesize some mesoporous inorganic materials, but precise control over structures at the mesoscopic scale remained a major challenge. In particular, developing broadly applicable methods for ordered mesoporous materials and extending mesoporous structures to organic, carbon-based, and multicomponent functional systems remained key obstacles to progress. Zhao and his collaborators pioneered new approaches to synthesizing ordered mesoporous materials through molecular self-assembly. They established a series of internationally influential material systems, including SBA and FDU, enabling precise control over mesoporous structures, pore sizes, compositions, and morphologies. These pioneering studies established general methodologies for constructing ordered mesoporous materials and dramatically expanded the range of compositions and structures available. They helped establish mesoporous materials as a major research field in materials science. Zhao and his collaborators also developed organic–organic self-assembly strategies for the controlled synthesis of highly ordered mesoporous polymers and mesoporous carbon materials. This breakthrough moved the field beyond its traditional focus on inorganic systems and opened new research directions in mesoporous organic and carbon materials. His team subsequently developed a range of broadly applicable synthesis methods, including evaporation-induced self-assembly, enabling the ordered assembly of various metal oxides and composite mesoporous materials. These approaches established molecular self-assembly as a versatile platform for constructing functional mesoscopic materials. Widely adopted by researchers around the world, these methods have helped advance functional mesoporous materials in catalysis, energy, environmental science, and biomedicine, while also contributing to the development of related industries. Zhao’s pioneering work established the scientific foundations of ordered mesoporous materials and enabled precise control over structures and functions at the mesoscopic scale. It has also deepened understanding of molecular self-assembly and the mechanisms underlying the construction of mesoscopic materials. The field he helped establish has become one of the most active and influential frontiers in chemistry and materials science, with applications spanning catalysis, energy storage and conversion, environmental remediation, and biomedicine. Born in Shenyang, China, in 1963, Zhao received his Ph.D. from Jilin University in 1990. He is currently a professor at Fudan University. Xinyi Yuan — Peking University Xinyi Yuan has made foundational contributions to arithmetic geometry. He established the theory of arithmetic bigness in Arakelov geometry, creating a new theoretical framework for studying small points on algebraic varieties. In recent years, he proved the uniform Bogomolov conjecture and subsequently derived a quantitative version of the uniform Mordell conjecture, proposed by Barry Mazur in the 1980s, marking major advances in Diophantine geometry. Arithmetic geometry applies methods from algebraic geometry to problems involving integer and rational solutions. Rooted in questions dating back to the ancient Greek mathematician Diophantus, the field has developed into a vibrant area of modern mathematics. Major milestones include Andrew Wiles’ proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem in 1994, Gerd Faltings’ proof of the Mordell conjecture in 1983, and the proof of the Bogomolov conjecture by Emmanuel Ullmo and Shou-Wu Zhang in 1998. Yuan established the theory of arithmetic bigness, extending pioneering work by Lucien Szpiro, Emmanuel Ullmo, and Shou-Wu Zhang on the distribution of small points. The theory has provided powerful new tools for studying small points on arithmetic varieties and has become a foundational framework in arithmetic geometry and arithmetic dynamics. Using this theory, Yuan proved the uniform Bogomolov conjecture over global fields. In collaboration with Jia-Wei Yu and Sheng-Hsun Zhou, he also proved an effective quantitative version of the uniform Mordell conjecture proposed by Mazur. In 2021, Dimitrov, Ziyang Gao, Habegger, and Kühne established Mazur’s conjecture. Yuan’s work provided a broad geometric perspective and established results with explicit quantitative estimates, representing an important advance in Diophantine geometry. Yuan has also conducted highly productive collaborations with Shou-Wu Zhang and Wei Zhang, including a generalization of the Gross–Zagier formula and a proof of the average Colmez conjecture. These results have become important foundations for proving certain cases of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture and the André–Oort conjecture. Yuan is a professor at the Beijing International Center for Mathematical Research at Peking University. Born in Hubei, China, in 1981, he received his bachelor’s degree from Peking University in 2003 and his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 2008.

Peking University Mathematics: A Rising Force in Global MathematicsThe recognition of Weijie Su comes shortly after another historic achievement by Peking University mathematics alumni. Recently, Hong Wang and Yu Deng, both members of Peking University’s 2007 undergraduate cohort, were awarded the Fields Medal, marking the first time that mathematicians of Chinese nationality have received the honor and the first time that two mathematicians with a background in China’s domestic mathematics education system have won the world’s highest honor in mathematics in the same year. For Wang and Deng, as well as other emerging mathematicians, Peking University has played a pivotal role in their academic development. Wang entered Peking University in 2007 through the School of Earth and Space Sciences and transferred to the School of Mathematical Sciences one year later due to her passion for mathematics. She earned her bachelor’s degree from Peking University’s School of Mathematical Sciences in 2011. Deng, also a member of the 2007 undergraduate cohort, entered Peking University through a recommendation after winning a gold medal at the International Mathematical Olympiad. He later transferred to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics. At the 2026 International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM), 14 mathematicians associated with Peking University were invited to deliver 45-minute academic lectures. They include alumni from different generations as well as faculty members, reflecting the university’s growing influence in global mathematics. Today, Peking University mathematics has developed a strong new generation of researchers who are making significant contributions across frontier areas of mathematics. Alumni from the university’s “golden generation” have achieved international recognition in fields including algebraic geometry, number theory, arithmetic geometry, p-adic Hodge theory, and mathematical physics. Among them, Chen-Yang Xu (Class of 1999) has made influential contributions to algebraic geometry; Zhiwei Yun (Class of 2000) has advanced connections between number theory and geometry; Ruochuan Liu (Class of 1999) has made foundational contributions to p-adic Hodge theory and the p-adic Langlands program; Xinyi Yuan (Class of 2000) has achieved major breakthroughs in Arakelov geometry, Diophantine geometry, and arithmetic dynamics; and Yi Liu (Class of 2002) solved longstanding problems including conjectures proposed by Fields Medalist Curtis McMullen. The 2007 undergraduate cohort has produced a new generation of internationally recognized scholars, including Hong Wang, Yu Deng, Weijie Su, Xin Sun, and Yunqing Tang. Ziquan Zhuang (Class of 2010) became the youngest Peking University mathematician invited to deliver a lecture at the 2026 International Congress of Mathematicians. Together, these achievements highlight the accelerating development of Peking University mathematics and its growing global impact in science and research.
At the 46th COSPAR Scientific Assembly on Aug. 3, Chinese space physicist and meteorologist Wang Jinsong and U.S. space physicist David Gary Sibeck were awarded the William Nordberg Medal, one of the Committee on Space Research's (COSPAR) highest scientific honors. Each recipient will also have an asteroid named in recognition of their contributions. COSPAR, a scientific body of the International Science Council, presents the William Nordberg Medal every two years to scientists who have made distinguished contributions to the application of space science.
