Now, Professor Niu serves as deputy director of the National Engineering Research Center of Tree Breeding and Ecological Restoration, deputy secretary general and standing member of the Pine Branch of the Chinese Society of forestry. He was selected as the national young top-notch talent of “Ten Thousand Talents Program”, leading talent of forest and grassland and technology innovation of the National Forestry and Grassland Administration (NFGA), outstanding young scholarship of “Beilin Scholars Program” of Beijing Forestry University, etc. He also served as an evaluation committee member of the General Project meeting of the Life Science Department which belongs to the National Natural Science Foundation of China. His research findings have been published in prestigious academic journals in the field of biology, such as Cell, Plant Physiology, Trends in Genetics, and New Phytologist. His achievements exert extensive influence in the scientific community. He has been awarded as the author of “ESI Highly cited Papers”, “Research Advances on Plant Science in China in 2015”, “Achievements and Advances in the Plant Sciences Field China in 2021”, “Ten Major Events in Forests and Grasslands Science and Technology in 2021”, and “Ten Major Advances in Forests and Grasslands Science and Technology during the 13th Five-Year Plan Period”, etc.

“The research on forestry has been improved over the past few years, especially in China. The research gap with herbaceous demonstration plants and crops is rapidly narrowing in terms of the number, depth and impact of innovations. The launch of Forestry Research is a timely opportunity to address the dilemma of the lack of world-class journals in the field of forestry research. I am delighted to have this opportunity to contribute to the journal. I am full of hope and enthusiasm for the future. We firmly believe that Forestry Research will become an open-source archive of world-class academic achievements, a highly trusted source of innovative information and technology, and a new global platform for academic exchange and knowledge dissemination in forestry and related disciplines.” Professor Niu said.

About Forestry Research

Forestry Research is an academic journal focusing on the field of forestry and published by Maximum Academic Press (MAP) since January 2021. Professor Hairong Wei from the College of Forestry Resources and Environment at Michigan Technological University serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal. Featuring an open-access format, the journal upholds strict editorial selection and evaluation processes. Forestry Research mainly publishes research papers, methods, reviews, and opinions on forest science and other relevant fields, with topics ranging from molecules to populations to ecosystems.

Study finds high rates of burnout across healthcare professions

2023-03-31
Burnout is associated with adverse outcomes including medical errors and lower quality of care. While many studies have focused on physician or nurse burnout, the COVID-19 pandemic increased stress across the healthcare workforce, including support staff and healthcare teams who have a crucial role in patient care. A new study of 206 healthcare organizations led by investigators from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, a founding member of the Mass General Brigham healthcare system, identified high levels of burnout, intent to leave the profession, and work overload across all members of the healthcare ...

Oregon State researchers develop new model for quickly evaluating potential cervical cancer drugs

Oregon State researchers develop new model for quickly evaluating potential cervical cancer drugs
2023-03-31
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Researchers at Oregon State University have created a means of speeding up and improving the evaluation process for drugs used to combat cervical cancer. The study led by Kaitlin Fogg, assistant professor of biological engineering in the OSU College of Engineering, is important because the American Cancer Society estimates that nearly 14,000 new cervical cancer cases will be diagnosed in the United States this year and that more than 4,000 women will die from the disease. Findings were published in the Journal of Biomedical Materials Research. Fogg and graduate students in the College of Engineering ...

Development of an artificial kidney for early detection of drug toxicity

2023-03-31
The kidney plays a vital role in maintaining homeostasis within the body by eliminating toxic and superfluous substances in the bloodstream, including waste generated during metabolic processes, through urine. Nevertheless, toxicity can also be induced in the kidney from certain medications. Recently, a research team from POSTECH has engineered an artificial kidney that allows for the early detection of adverse drug reactions.    The POSTECH research team led by Professor Dong-Woo Cho and Professor Jinah Jang (Department ...

Do we understand the flickering flames?

Do we understand the flickering flames?
2023-03-31
Overview A research team, led by Professor Yuji Nakamura of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Toyohashi University of Technology, discovered that the flickering of flames can be freely controlled by moving two flames closer together or further apart. Until now, it had been known that interference between flames separated by a certain distance causes the flames to flicker during in-phase or anti-phase. However, it was not possible to stably express the state of “stopping the flickering of flames” that should occur under critical ...

DGIST Professor Yoonkyu Lee’s research team has developed a high-performance transparent-flexible electronic device based on a copper-graphene nanowire synthesized by scintillation

DGIST Professor Yoonkyu Lee’s research team has developed a high-performance transparent-flexible electronic device based on a copper-graphene nanowire synthesized by scintillation
2023-03-31
□ DGIST Professor Yoonkyu Lee’s research team illuminated intense light on the surface of a copper wire to synthesize graphene, thereby increasing the production rate and lowering the production cost of the high-quality transparent-flexible electrode materials and consequently enabling its mass production. This technology is applicable to various 2D materials[1], and its applicability can be extended to the synthesis of various metal-2D material nanowires.   □ The research team used copper-graphene nanowires to implement high-performance transparent-flexible ...
