The selected events also include the clinical trial of an invasive brain-computer interface; the discovery of the evolutionary history of the moon's far side; the transformation process from a single somatic cell into a complete plant; and the development of a high-precision, scalable analog matrix computing chip.
Other events in the top 10 are the emphasis on the leading role of sci-tech innovation in the Recommendations of the Communist Party of China Central Committee for Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) for Economic and Social Development, and the commissioning of China's first aircraft carrier equipped with electromagnetic catapults.
