This book will take you into Tsinghua University classrooms, allowing you to hear reports from the forefront of science and technology. In contemporary society, science and technology are developing at an unprecedented pace, with scientific knowledge being comprehensively updated. To help students understand the current trends of modern science and improve their analytical and problem-solving skills as well as overall quality, academicians and renowned scholars from various fields gather at Tsinghua University's lecture hall. They provide Tsinghua students with a wealth of cutting-edge information from fields such as information science, biotechnology, lasers, and nuclear energy; and explore the relationships between science and technology and society, economy, politics, culture, and ethics. Their reports are humorous and vivid, rich in content yet easy to understand. The audience has expanded from initial Tsinghua students to students from surrounding universities. To allow more readers to benefit from these reports, we have compiled these latest presentations into this book. This book will take you into Tsinghua University classrooms, allowing you to listen to lectures on the forefront of science and technology together with Tsinghua students."
