Since 2005, organ donation and transplantation in China has undergone thorough reform, which complies with legislation requirements and ethical principles established by the World Health Organization(WHO). Reform in China has demonstrated the unwavering confidence and utmost determination of the Chinese government and the Chinese transplantation community. The year 2015 marked a historic turning point when voluntary donations from Chinese citizens became the sole legitimate source for organ transplantation. Since 2015, China has gradually established and refined the “Chinese Mode” and “China System” for organ donation and transplantation, fulfilling its political pledge of reform, and has garnered international recognition, and fostered a social culture which promotes organ donation. This article reviewed the history of reform on organ donation and transplantation in China, presented a new pattern of establishment of organ donation system in the new era of the country, and the direction of advances in the future.展开更多

文摘CO_(2) and CH_(4) as major causes of global warming could both be eliminated to produce syngas undermild conditions through dry reforming methane driven by electromagnetic induction heating(EMIH-controlled DRM).Using EMIH-configured characterization and density functional theory,it is shownthat the EMIH-induced negative electric field at the electromagnetic interface facilitates CO_(2) dissociation and atomic oxygen transfer,which is the source of the promoting effect of EMIH.By employing pure H2 in a one-step high-temperature reduction process,the interfacial effect between the NiMgAl compound and the Fe fiber could be improved,thereby increasing the influence of the EMIH-induced electric field.Consequently,the R-NiMgAl/Fe fiber catalyst with EMIH achieves about 90%conversions of CH_(4) and CO_(2) at 500℃,while traditional heating-driven DRM on R-NiMgAl requires 700℃ to accomplish the same result.
文摘This paper focuses on the application of artificial intelligence(AI)technology in the reform of college English teaching.By analyzing the current situation of college English teaching and the advantages of AI technology,it explores how AI technology can be applied in different aspects of college English teaching,such as teaching content delivery,language practice,and assessment.It also discusses the challenges and opportunities brought by AI technology in the teaching reform process and proposes corresponding construction strategies to promote the deep integration of AI technology and college English teaching,aiming to improve the quality and efficiency of college English teaching and develop students’comprehensive English application ability.

文摘Under the background of the continuous deepening of engineering education accreditation and the construction of emerging engineering disciplines,a digital platform-assisted teaching model was explored for the teaching reform of the molecular biology course to effectively support the achievement of graduation requirements for bioengineering major and enhance the teaching outcomes of the molecular biology course.The teaching reform of this course took the 2022 cohort students majoring in bioengineering in Chengdu University as the practice object.The course evaluation method was improved by integrating digital platforms for process assessment,and real-world research and practical cases were incorporated into digital platforms to enrich teaching resources.Additionally,digital platforms were integrated throughout the entire teaching process(before,during,and after class),reshaping the instructional workflow into"pre-class online self-learning,in-class teacher-student interaction for deepening knowledge internalization,and practical case studies during and after class for strengthening application".The teaching reform results demonstrated that this teaching model significantly improved the attainment of course objectives,providing valuable experience for similar institutions to advance digital course reforms under the framework of engineering education accreditation.

文摘Higher education is at the top of the educational hierarchy.With the booming development of the economy and society in China,its scale is also expanding greatly.Professional course teaching is a key component of higher education,and it plays a vital role in cultivating professionalism and even the overall level of students.According to several problems existing in the current teaching practice of professional courses at our universities,in order to improve the teaching quality to meet the requirements in the emerging engineering era,related strategies and approaches for teaching reform are proposed as follows.Firstly,we advance the traditional classroom teaching into the modern one with equal double-subjects of teachers and students to cultivate the active and comprehensive learning ability of students.Secondly,the scientific research practice-oriented teaching method is introduced,and it contributes to connecting theory with engineering practice for students.Thirdly,the diversified course assessment system is explored,and a closed-loop quality control strategy is discussed on the basis of a questionnaire survey and face-to-face interview.By questionnaires and final assessments,it is clear that teaching qualities of related professional courses are satisfactory in recent years,and the methods and strategies can be widely applied to the teaching practice of other courses.
