In China, organoid research has gained significant attention within biomedical science and biotechnology laboratories. Researchers are using organoids derived from tissues such as the liver, brain, and intestine to explore complex diseases and improve drug discovery methods. Because organoids can mimic many features of real organs, they provide a more realistic research platform compared to traditional cell cultures.

Beijing long allowed Mongols in China to live out their cultural identity. That, though, is now over. Xi Jinping has decided that they must assimilate into the culture of the Chinese majority.

Coal mining within the region has led to a major economic revival. But how has this prosperity benefited the nomads or the environment?
On April 21, 2011, farmer Wang Tao stood with his wife and grandson outside his sparse home where he used to grow corn, potatoes and wheat a stone's throw from a rare earth waste dump until toxic chemicals leaked into in the water supply system. And the poison was found on land near the city of Baotou in Inner Mongolia, northwest China. Farmers living near the tailings dam, a 10-square-kilometer expanse of toxic waste, say their teeth have fallen out and their hair has turned white, while tests show the soil and water contain high concentrations of cancer-causing radioactive materials.

Washington-based Chinese Muslim exiles say that testimony from a former detainee in Xinjiang will help them convince the world that China’s repressions of minorities amount to crimes against humanity.
Ovalbek Turdakun, an ethnic Kyrgyz Christian from Xinjiang, arrived in the United States from Kyrgyzstan earlier this month after lobbying from several members of Congress.
In 2018, Turdakun spent 10 months in a Xinjiang prison camp where he says he was interrogated in shackles, psychologically and physically tortured, and kept under constant surveillance.
“I was forced to sign documents without having time to review them, formally admitting any crimes that they assigned to me,” he said at an April 13 press conference in Washington. “The more you oppose these accusations, the more you stay in a crowded cell, where some inmates must keep standing in order that others can sleep.”
Turdakun said he was then confined to house arrest for about…

TOKYO/NAHA, Okinawa -- Sunday marks the 50th anniversary of Okinawa's return to Japan by the U.S.
Japan's southernmost prefecture, comprised of 160 islands, formed the backdrop of some of the fiercest battles fought in Japan during World War II. A quarter of the local population, some 120,000 people, died.
Five decades later, Okinawans still can't shake the specter of war. In the intervening, mostly peaceful, years, Okinawans have petitioned the government to cut the size of the American military footprint on the main island. Tokyo, under different prime ministers, had swayed toward that goal.
But now, the rise of China has once again turned Okinawa into the first line of defense. The islands are nothing short of irreplaceable in the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy.
On May 3, during Japan's Golden Week holiday, the Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning began operations in the Pacific Ocean, 160 km south of Okinawa.

The government's decision to reject mandatory ethnicity pay gap reporting for firms has been criticised as "nonsensical" by MPs.
Conservative MP Caroline Nokes said it also showed a lack of will "to foster a fairer and more equal society".
She chairs a parliamentary committee which has called for pay gap rules to be extended to include race.
But the government has said it does not want to impose any new reporting burdens on business.
Companies with more than 250 employees have been required to publish their gender pay gap statistics since 2017, revealing stark differences at some firms between the amount women and men are paid per hour on average.
