Throughout history,gender inequality has persisted in most parts of the world.Since the founding of the People\'s Republic of China(PRC)in 1949,substantial progress has been made towards gender equality in China.Today,a large number of Chinese women scientists are making significant contributions to advance science.However,are they facing gender discrimination in hiring and promotion?Do they have access to the same opportunities as their male colleagues?What are the potential approaches to further promote gender equality in China\'s scientific community given myriad unfavorable social factors?Recently,NSR invited five Chinese female scientists and two gender experts to discuss these issues.Here are their observations and suggestions.

Transients are fundamental to ecological systems with significant implications to management,conservation and biological control.We uncover a type of transient synchronization behavior in spatial ecological networks whose local dynamics are of the chaotic
Interferometry,a key technique in modern precision measurements,has been used for length measurement in engineering metrology and astronomy.An analogous time-domain interferometric technique would represent a significant complement to spatial domain appli
As reverse osmosis(RO)technologies have improved,desalination has become a viable approach to addressing water scarcity,by treating various alternative water resources such as seawater,brack-ish water and wastewater[1].However,the management of brines has
The thermal conductivity of two-dimensional materials,such as graphene,typically decreases when tensile strain is applied,which softens their phonon modes.Here,we report an anomalous strain effect on the thermal conductivity of monolayer silicene,a repres

Somatic mutations of the chromatin remodeling gene ARID2 are observed in ～7% of human lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs). However, the role of ARID2 in the pathogenesis of LUADs remains largely unknown. Here we find that ARID2 expression is decreased during the
