Not all “supervolcanoes” raised CO₂ — some did the opposite. 🌋
A team of geoscientists led by Shen Jiaheng from #PekingUniversity found that during the Emeishan Large Igneous Province (LIP) (~260 Ma), atmospheric CO₂ dropped from ~700 ppm to ~350 ppm.

How do cells keep lipid distribution in check — and what happens when this balance breaks down?
A study from #PekingUniversity sheds light on this question, identifying CLCC1 as a key regulator that recognizes imbalances in the ER bilayer and helps recruit TMEM41B to restore membrane lipid balance.
Prof. Pei Jian and Zhang Wenbin's teams at #PekingUniversity uncover how solution-state aggregation influences shear-induced alignment in conjugated polymers.

Randomness usually destroys order. But what if the right kind of randomness could preserve it?
#PekingUniversity researchers and collaborators take on the “heating problem” in driven quantum systems with an unexpected approach: structured randomness that stabilizes long-lived prethermal states.
