this is good for a laugh. when the institutions of higher learning has chosen to be politically correct rather than seeking truth, they have reached their utility. on the jewish issue, Voltair said you know who rules over you when you find out whom you cannot criticize. sad.
This just goes to show how Reality will always win out against propaganda in the end, no matter how long propaganda wins in the short term
This article just shows one aspect of the narrative being uncovered and for those who also still believe that Africans are not of the standard of the West, the next couple of years will be very interesting for them when reality begins dawning on them like it is now in the Chinese side of the equation
West is the past, China is the present and Africa is the future IMO
This year and in years to come throughout the planet high achieving high school and college goyim students and their parents will be anxiously considering which university to apply for. International rankings will obviously be considered but they might be worried that if they choose Harvard they will have to walk along corridors and into classrooms with their heads down in case there are any Jewish students who will become 'uncomfortable' and report them for anti-semitism should they happen to spend a millionth of a nanosecond in glancing at them
Hua, as always your work is timely and eye-opening. I've been amazed at how dominant China is in discovering the innovations and developing the patents that will drive human advancement through the next century. Thank you for revealing again the importance of Chinese education and research to our world.
While there are worthwhile takeaways from this Nature ranking snapshot, already much discussed in research circles, I suspect its flawed methodologies will soon be revised. Among several issues, Chinese research teams are significantly larger than US labs, and co-authoring is very generous (not uncommon to find an article with 25 co-authors) [both features in European labs as well, which accounts for the only top 10 placement by Max Planck]. Thr institutional credit assigned by Nature is flawed in this respect at least.
But, indeed, some of these “unfamiliar” labs are standouts in facilities which are otherwise works-in-progress.
Nonetheless, these labs are well-equipped with near latest instrumentation, observe SOPs etc.. However, their strength is their incredibly enthusiastic and intelligent young researchers who are free to challenge conventional methods and hypotheses. A Tsinghua lab is typically headed by a PI of distinction, [usually/often] from a Western institution . This is a dream come true — to direct a group of this kind with proper funding and freedom.
The top western labs are superb as well (this does not necessarily mean just the prestigious schools) — but they have many Chinese-origin researchers who will not be given an opportunity to lead. There are many instances of this kind (suppression of key Chinese researchers) so it is hardly surprising that younger talent will return to China (or not leave at all in the first place — see DeepSeek).
In a future steady state, it is the number of researchers (assuming equivalence of talent) that will overwhelm the west. On the one hand, where there is a western precedent such as the ITER fusion project near Marseilles, in which the Chinese have nominal participation in, but where their suggestions have been ignored, the Chinese have now built their own tokamaks and are already breaking their own records in duration of reaction time.
But the less obvious directions are where I believe China will surprise. That’s another discussion.
As we’ve seen already seen with DeepSeek (and unlike silk and porcelain) China will share and create multiple networks for development, beginning with BRICS, with Russia being primus inter pares.

Facts trump propaganda (or misinformation).
Greetings from Dr. Pattberg. Very excellent!
