Abstract： Nanoscale science and technology (nano S&T) are at the frontier of global strategic high-tech competition. After examining nearly 160 strategy and planning documents released by scientific and technological powerhouses from 2000 to 2023, the study finds ten common approaches adopted by the powerhouses to advance nano S&T as follows. (1) Recognizing nano S&T as a key area for the economy and global competition. (2) Establishing cross-department organizations to meet the cross-disciplinary nature of nano S&T. (3) Developing strategic plans to guide the development of nano S&T and implementing major programs with significant investment. (4) Establishing multidisciplinary nano S&T research centers based upon institutions with strength. (5) Building and maintaining physical and cyber R&D infrastructures for nano S&T. (6) Promoting convergence of nanotechnology, information technology, biotechnology, and cognition science. (7) Establishing facilities to accelerate the commercialization of promising discoveries. (8) Paying close attention to the possible effects of nano S&T on the environment and human health. (9) Developing a skilled workforce and recruiting overseas talents. (10) Engaging in international collaborations. The study also finds that the powerhouses have continued to pay close attention to nano S&T during the past three years, focusing on issues such as leveraging nano S&T to help address significant societal challenges and preparing for the oncoming data-intensive R&D paradigm. Moreover, the study discusses the progress and shortcomings of nano S&T in China and proposes suggestions for R&D in the future after taking account of the findings presented above. The suggestions include promoting the commercialization of promising R&D, building and maintaining nanomaterial databases, establishing nano S&T think tanks, and putting in place a system of developing talent who can adapt to scientific and technological trends and meet the demands of the development of nano S&T.

Abstract： In 2022, Institutes of Science and Development, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASISD), the National Science Library, CAS, and Clarivate Analytics released their joint report Research Fronts 2022. The report utilized the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) database to do co-citation analysis. The 2022 report started from 12 610 research fronts in ESI and identified a total of 165 research fronts, including hot and emerging specialties spanning 11 broad research areas in sciences and social sciences. With the 165 research fronts and the related core papers and citing papers as the basis for analysis, this study summarized 8 development trends in science and technology, and recent trends and key research questions in 11 broad research areas, aiming to provide reference for studying and forecasting the major development trends in science and technology, summarizing important research issues and then making systematic deployment.

Abstract： This work studies various official documents issued by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan in the field of energy within the last decade, and analyzes strategic plans, funds, scientific and technological projects deployment, organizational mechanisms by the content analysis method. It is found that there are some common features in energy policies of the above countries and regions: natural resources conditions are the basis for developing energy policies, diversification and clean and efficient usage are common targets, scientific and technological innovation is important for achieving the targets. Finally, some suggestions are put forward on energy transition in China.
