Breaking down borders in science , China has opened 12 state-of-the-art nuclear research facilities to scientists worldwide, aiming to supercharge global collaboration on clean energy and tech innovation.
What’s on the Menu?
From the China Advanced Research Reactor to the futuristic Huanliu-3 tokamak (think: a donut-shaped machine for nuclear fusion ), these labs cover everything from isotope production to radioactive waste solutions. The move, announced at an IAEA conference, marks China’s 40th year in the atomic energy agency.
Why It Matters
Liu Jing of China’s Atomic Energy Authority called it a 'win-win for humanity' . Meanwhile, IAEA Deputy Director Mikhail Chudakov praised China’s 'game-changing' tech sharing, which could help nations tackle climate and energy crises.
