Zhejiang University surpasses Harvard in the Nature Index rankings, driven by growth in AI and hard sciences

@96Stats “Usurped” is an editorial choice, an indictment that Zhejiang did not gain first place by merit and superior effort. Shameful.

@96Stats It's very hard to do well in social sciences without freedom of expression

@96Stats "Nature say that Harvard still leads in health sciences and social sciences"

I'd say 🇨🇳 university should grab the health sciences too. But let Harvard keep the social sciences lead...as a face saving gesture from 🇨🇳😏

@96Stats China found out a lot of social science graduates can't find jobs. They eliminated some social science programs. The US eliminates some natural science fundings.

@rothwrath @96Stats "Freedom of expression" like fv¢k1πg b∆b1€$ & then €∆t1π9 them, Epsteen drone?

Nobody buys your d€g€π€r∆te 🐂💩 anymore, $∆t∆π1$t.

@rothwrath @96Stats The West should first learn to freely discuss Israel’s decades-long genocide against Palestinians. Why the collective silence in the West?

@Kathleen_Tyson_ @96Stats And Harvard loses to "unnamed Chinese university".

Not "Zhejiang beats Harvard".

It's seething sour grapes, as always.

@96Stats DeepSeek的梁文锋就是浙江大学毕业的

@96Stats Always follow the money and ignore the hype when it comes to China👇🏻

@rothwrath @96Stats Ok you can keep your lead in social sciences. The rest go to 🇨🇳😌

@96Stats Lol Zhejiang Univerdity is People’s Liberation Army tool, literally integrated into its research.

@96Stats Social “sciences” are not sciences, if a department has the name “science” in it, I’m sorry - it’s not. 🤷

@randommartyr @96Stats What makes you think I'm not 🇨🇳?

@96Stats "usurped"... we westerners can be such entitled crybabies lol

@rothwrath @96Stats There is absolutely no "freedom of expression" in American academia. These people are scared to say that human males are not able to become pregnant. Let's be a little less naive.

@96Stats It's not academic ranking. It's paper count, now further elevated by AI https://www.scmp.com/tech/tech-trends/article/3328966/ai-powered-fraud-chinese-paper-mills-are-mass-producing-fake-academic-research?module=top_story&pgtype=homepage

@96Stats Social science is useless but health science has global strategic value. CN will leapfrog in health science.

@96Stats @Comunardo We wait another two years and Harvard won't be on the list. 🤭

@96Stats Israel

@96Stats Makes no sense. It is not even ranked first in China.

Best in China are Tsinghua (MIT equivalent) and Peking (Harvard equivalent).
