In order to foster cultural exchanges, Nanjing University (NJU) organized a themed exhibition on the Kesi technique, which is a form of Chinese silk weaving and was included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009.
More than twenty foreign experts gathered on November 15 to appreciate the traditional art's beauty and joined a round table discussion to address the dissemination of traditional Chinese culture and the NJU talent cultivation system. Through in-depth discussion and opinion sharing, the foreign experts gained renewed awareness of traditional Chinese culture and confidence in integrating into Nanjing.
For the sake of promoting international cooperation, Nanjing University has established the Overseas Scholars Service Center, which offers comprehensive and centralized services to foreign experts.
The center has helped approximately fifty foreign experts come to the institution for work or academic exchange since its formal launch in 2020. Meanwhile, the center increased its efforts to develop a platform to enhance mutual understanding between Chinese and international scholars.

The trio will conduct a series of experiments in fields such as life science, fluid physics, combustion science and materials science. Notably, this is the first time that fruit flies have been taken on a Chinese space mission as experimental subjects. What made scientists choose fruit flies? What experiment will they undergo?
