The latest Nature Index rankings reveal an astonishing trend: nine of the world’s top 10 research institutions are now Chinese
To fully appreciate China’s meteoric rise, one must look back at the academic landscape a decade ago. When the Nature Index Global rankings were first released in 2014, only eight Chinese universities made it into the top 100. Today, that number has more than quintupled, with 42 Chinese institutions now ranking among the world’s best
One of the most notable policy shifts has been the move away from publication-based evaluation metrics. Previously, Chinese academics were incentivized to publish as many papers as possible, often at the expense of quality. However, recent reforms have introduced a more rigorous peer-review system that prioritizes impactful and innovative research over sheer volume. This shift has resulted in a significant improvement in the credibility and global influence of Chinese scientific output.
Both governments can be terrible yknow
Yeah, but the US is actially starting to be worse in this regard than China
Tell me that when the US throws up a Great Firewall that blocks all non-approved media and internet
As if the NSA was not suveilling the whole internet through a dragnet.
Look, I’m not saying China is perfect or even good. I’m saying that it’s starting to look like there is no moral or values based argument to buy Apple instead of Huawei or Tesla instead of BYD.
honestly I don’t care, what the US is doing is what on all fronts. people on China for the most part genuinely approve of their government.
