    Ethical issues raised by uterus transplantation: A report from the People's Republic of China
    with Yiqi Gao, Tao Xue, Hong Yang, and Li Wei
    Developing World Bioethics 23 (1): 34-40. 2022.
    The recent advances in assisted reproductive technology, such as hormonal stimulation, IVF, and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), have made it possible to circumvent many causes of male and female factor infertility. However, uterine infertility is still considered an ‘‘unconditionally infertile’’ condition. Owing to the continued advances in organ transplantation, microvascular anastomosis techniques, and immunosuppressive medicine, the transplantation of organs is no longer restricted t…Read more

    Metaphysics, Function and the Engineering of Life: the Problem of Vitalism
    with Bognon-Küss Cécilia and T. Wolfe Charles
    Kairos 20 (1). 2018.
    Vitalism was long viewed as the most grotesque view in biological theory: appeals to a mysterious life-force, Romantic insistence on the autonomy of life, or worse, a metaphysics of an entirely living universe. In the early twentieth century, attempts were made to present a revised, lighter version that was not weighted down by revisionary metaphysics: “organicism”. And mainstream philosophers of science criticized Driesch and Bergson’s “neovitalism” as a too-strong ontological commitment to the…Read more

    It is emphasized that environmental predictability is another important condition that plays roles in slow strategies that are related to innovation; that economic inequality, except as measured by Gross Domestic Product per capita, influences innovation; and that switching global life history from a slow to a fast strategy is a response adopted in response to new challenges during the post-Industrial Revolution period.

    The relationship between bilingual language control and executive control is debated. The present study investigated the effect of short‐term language switching in a comprehension task on executive control performance in unbalanced bilinguals. Participants were required to perform a context task and an executive control task (i.e., flanker task) in sequence. A picture‐word matching task created different language contexts in Experiment 1 (i.e., L1, L2, and dual‐language contexts). By modifying t…Read more

    On Ernest Nagel on Teleology in Biology
    In Matthias Neuber & Adam Tamas Tuboly (eds.), Ernest Nagel: Philosophy of Science and the Fight for Clarity, Springer. pp. 189-211. 2021.
    This chapter revisits Ernest Nagel’s view of teleology in biology. In some of his writings from the 1950s to the 1970s, Nagel contended for the legitimacy of teleology in biology but argued against its uniqueness. In addition, Nagel also offered a goal-contribution account in the biological function debate which emerged in the 1960s and the 1970s. While questions of legitimacy and uniqueness of teleology draw little attention today, the biological function debate remains in focus in philosophy o…Read more

    Many scholars have investigated education management. Scholars in the education field have made significant achievements in contributing to multiple educational reform policies, while other scholars discuss teacher-related issues from the perspective of organizational behavior. The teaching innovation of high school teachers plays a critical role in students’ learning attitude and motivation, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers need to utilize more diversified teaching m…Read more

    Individual creativity has been the focus of long-term research in creative industries. However, few studies have explored the impact on individual creativity from social factors. At the same time, the influence of individual creativity on the existence of subsequent factors in the creative industry is also worthy of further investigation. From a social standpoint, this research aims to explore how social norms affect individual creativity, and how individual creativity affects subsequent leaders…Read more

    Effect of mindfulness meditation on depression during pregnancy: A meta-analysis
    with Yuchao Li, Jinghui Chen, Tingting Wang, Zhusheng Wu, Xia Huang, and Shanshan Li
    Frontiers in Psychology 13. 2022.
    PurposeThis study systematically evaluates the effect of mindfulness meditation on depression during pregnancy. We provide evidence-based suggestions for preventing and reducing depression during pregnancy by exploring the most effective intervention mode, cycle, and frequency of mindfulness meditation.MethodsRecords were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Science Direct. A total of 1,612 randomized controlled trial studies on the effect of mindfulness meditation on pregnancy depr…Read more

    The swarm intelligence algorithm simulates the behavior of animal populations in nature and is a new type of intelligent solution that is different from traditional artificial intelligence. Feature selection is a very common data dimensionality reduction method, which requires us to select the feature subset with the best evaluation criteria from the original feature set. Feature selection, as an effective data processing method, has become a hot research topic in the fields of machine learning,…Read more

    Neuronal Morphological Model-Driven Image Registration for Serial Electron Microscopy Sections
    with Fangxu Zhou, Xi Chen, and Hua Han
    Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 16. 2022.
    Registration of a series of the two-dimensional electron microscope images of the brain tissue into volumetric form is an important technique that can be used for neuronal circuit reconstruction. However, complex appearance changes of neuronal morphology in adjacent sections bring difficulty in finding correct correspondences, making serial section neural image registration challenging. To solve this problem, we consider whether there are such stable "markers" in the neural images to alleviate r…Read more

    Cell cycle dependence of DNA-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation in response to DNA double strand breaks
    with Dw Chan, J. Kobayashi, Burma S., A. Asaithamby, K. Morotomi-Yano, E. Botvinick, J. Qin, and Dj Chen
    DNA-dependent protein kinase, consisting of Ku and DNA-PKcs subunits, is the key component of the non-homologous end-joining pathway of DNA double strand break repair. Although the kinase activity of DNA-PKcs is essential for NHEJ, thus far, no in vivo substrate has been conclusively identified except for an autophosphorylation site on DNA-PKcs itself. Here we report the ionizing radiation -induced autophosphorylation of DNA-PKcs at a novel site, serine 2056, the phosphorylation of which is requ…Read more

    The purpose of this study was to present a translation and interpreting teacher role identity framework for investigating how T&I teachers in China develop their role identities. There is a vast literature on language teacher identity in higher education compared to a paucity of literature on the development of T&I teacher identity. Developing a strong T&I teacher identity in the context of Chinese universities is challenging as teachers combine sub-roles of trainers/educators, researchers, and …Read more

    Faster R-CNN architecture is used to solve the problems of moving path uncertainty, changeable coverage, and high complexity in cold-air induced large-scale intensive temperature-reduction detection and classification, since those problems usually lead to path identification biases as well as low accuracy and generalization ability of recognition algorithm. In this paper, an improved recognition method of national ITR path in China based on faster R-CNN in complicated meteorological systems is p…Read more
