A new Perspective in Science Bulletin explains why computational pathology must move beyond accurate algorithms. To help in real hospitals, AI tools need to be interpretable, reportable, cost-aware, and tested in routine clinical workflows.
Researchers have produced the first systematic map of the fluid acceleration inside the quark–gluon plasma (QGP)—the hottest fluid in nature—revealing acceleration fields of several hundred MeV, among the strongest ever achieved on Earth, with far-reaching implications for the phase structure and transport phenomena of strong-interaction matter.

What if cancer screening no longer had to look for one cancer at a time? Cancer screening has long followed a one-organ-at-a-time model: mammography for breast cancer, colonoscopy for colorectal cancer, low-dose CT for lung cancer, and cervical testing for cervical cancer. These programs save lives, but they also leave gaps. Many cancers still lack routine screening, while patients often face multiple appointments, tests, and follow-up procedures.
As China continues to advance the Healthy China strategy and a tiered healthcare delivery system, general practice education is becoming relevant not only to students in GP-targeted training programs, but to all clinical medical students. A newly published expert consensus in the Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research focuses on general practice teaching for clinical medical students who are not enrolled in GP-oriented programs. It addresses common challenges such as unclear training objectives, weak practical teaching, and inconsistent faculty and course evaluation systems. The consensus recommends a staged pathway of early exposure, theoretical learning, and practice-based training, calls for Introduction to General Practice to be offered as a required course, and proposes a comprehensive assessment framework covering knowledge, skills, and professional values. It aims to provide a reference for medical schools seeking to standardize general practice education at the institutional education stage.
