Nanjing has long been a hotbed for scientific discovery and technological in
novations. Now, through promoting materials science and astrophysics, the fo

Nanjing, surrounded by green mountains and rivers, is the capital city of Ji
angsu province. Though it has long been a popular destination for tourists,
the 'ancient capital' is often overlooked by foreign investors who flock to
nearby, and much larger, Shanghai.
Nanjing's 2012 budget for scientific research and development was US$1.5 bil
lion, comprised of equal contributions from local government and industry. T
he city's eight pillar industries in the high-tech sector are supported by m
ore than 100 universities and research institutions, including the premier i
nstitution for education — Nanjing University (NJU).
NJU is by far Nanjing's largest contributor to the Nature Index, and fourth
overall in China by weighted fractional count (WFC). In 2013, the university
published 391 articles (WFC = 194.6), accounting for 64% of the city's WFC.
Despite this output, NJU contributed only one article (WFC = 0.05) to Scien
ce and none to Nature.

NJU is also productive in astrophysics, which makes up 15% of its fractional
count (FC). However, owing to the down-weighting of astrophysics journals i
n the index, these publications contribute a WFC of only 6.9. Jilin Zhou and
Zigao Dai from the school of astronomy and space science contribute the mos
t to this field. Zhou co-authored four articles on planetary formation, whil
e Dai contributed to three on gamma-ray bursts — extremely energetic explos
ions observed in distant galaxies.
Nanjing also has six smaller research universities and one institute of the
Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) that each contribute 2–10% of the city's
WFC. Southeast University (SEU) has the second largest output and is focused
on the physical sciences, which make up two-thirds of its WFC. In 2013, the
112-year-old institution published 65 articles (WFC = 30.9), with Tiejun Cu
i, the vice president of the school of information science and engineering,
being the most prolific contributor. Cui led 11 articles (WFC = 6.1) on tran
sformation optics, a novel class of materials with potential use in stealth
devices.
Nanjing Medical University (NJMU), founded in 1934, was one of the first ins
titutions to offer postgraduate medical education in China. In 2013, the uni
versity published 28 articles (WFC = 7.3), with life sciences research repre
senting 81% of its output. It also has the highest proportion of papers in N
ature and Science in the city, which comprise 4.6% of its WFC. NJMU's presid
ent, Hongbing Shen, is the most active contributor to the index, having led
five genome-wide association studies (WFC = 1.4), all published in Nature Ge
netics.
Nanjing is also the strongest city in China for astrophysics, which comprise
s 18% of its FC — ahead of Beijing (11%), Hefei (8%) and Hong Kong (5%). Th
is knowledge base is largely due to the Purple Mountain Observatory (PMO), a
CAS institute. Last year, PMO published 102 articles (WFC = 6.3), the major
ity from three contributors. Dejin Wu, the deputy director of the division o
f dark matter and space astronomy, published six articles on solar flares an
d coronal loops; Yizhong Fan published five articles on dark matter and gamm
a-ray bursts; and Xuefeng Wu contributed to seven articles on gamma-ray burs
ts.
PMO has a number of high-profile projects underway. “We are in the preparat
ion stage of launching our own observation satellites into space, and a team
of scientists will also be setting up an observatory in Antarctica,” says
Xuefeng Wu. “China's research capabilities in astrophysics have come a long
way since the 1980s.”
