In a recent study published in Global Ecology and Biogeography, a research team led by Prof. HU Chunxiang from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed the cascade mechanism through which multifaceted precipitation traits regulate biocrust multifunctionality via microbial diversity.
The Research Group on Fish Functional Genomics at the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, led by Prof. XIA Xiaoqin, developed SOCS8 knockout zebrafish that effectively modeled MAFLD progression.
A research group led by Prof. BI Yonghong from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed that the chlorination of AOM significantly enhanced its capacity to generate •OH upon irradiation, thereby accelerating the photodegradation of organic pollutants.
Over 50 experts from China and Southeast Asian countries have gathered in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei Province, to discuss strategies for protecting endangered freshwater dolphins.
China's experience in the conservation of the Yangtze finless porpoise using advanced monitoring equipment and artificial intelligence is being applied to the protection of Irrawaddy dolphins in the Mekong River in Cambodia.
With years of effort, scientists from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences managed to develop passive acoustic monitoring devices capable of capturing real-time underwater signals. These devices automatically identify the porpoises' unique vocalizations, pinpoint their locations and track their movements.
This visit further strengthens the international collaboration between the two institutions and paves the way for future research partnerships in aquatic biodiversity and evolutionary studies.
In his presentation, Prof. Dong provided an overview of various structural biology techniques and used engaging examples to explain the structural analysis of two key proteins from human parasites.
This visit not only strengthened mutual understanding between China and Thailand in the field of aquatic species conservation but also laid a solid foundation for future collaboration.
The lively matches featured intense rallies and enthusiastic spectator support, reflecting the vibrant institutional culture at CAS research institutes.
To ensure workplace safety during the upcoming May Day holiday, IHB conducted a thorough safety inspection from April 28 to 30, 2025.
After examining technical documentation and conducting in-depth discussions, the expert panel confirmed all projects had successfully achieved their research objectives and operational benchmarks.
I am proud to be part of an excellent interdisciplinary team, collaborating with experts in molecular genetics, structural biology, cell biology, and microbiology.
