BEIJING, Sept. 29 (Xinhua) -- The following is a summary of published science and technology news of China.

DNA-BASED STORAGE

Tianjin University's Frontiers Science Center for Synthetic Biology, in collaboration with Tianjin Huanhu Hospital, has made a major breakthrough in DNA-based data storage, introducing the innovative DNA Palette coding scheme.

This new method enables the successful encoding of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data into DNA, as well as lossless decoding and the 3D reconstruction of imaging data, paving the way for the development of advanced medical data storage technologies.

CLEAN ENERGY FROM XIZANG

As of Aug. 30, southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region has transmitted 14.6 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean energy outside the region since 2015, according to a press conference held on Sunday.

The power has been transmitted to provincial-level regions in other parts of China, helping reduce the use of standard coal by about 4.48 million tonnes and cutting carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide emissions by approximately 11.17 million tonnes and 340,000 tonnes, respectively, said the State Grid Xizang Electric Power Company Limited.

GLOBAL COOPERATION OF EV

Both Chinese and European electric vehicle (EV) makers and experts are calling for global cooperation and opposing trade protectionism at the ongoing 2024 World New Energy Vehicle Congress (WNEVC).

With the deep development of advanced technologies, collaborative research and global industrial chain cooperation have become more important to the automotive industry, Hildegard Mueller, president of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), said Saturday on the congress.

Themed with "Low Carbon Evolution and Global Cooperation," the 2024 WNEVC is taking place in Haikou, capital of south China's Hainan Province, running from Sept. 27 to 29. Enditem
