Academician Li Can from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yangtse River Scholar Professor Tan Zheng, director of the Health Research Center for the Aged of Changzhi Medical College, Professor Yuan Gu, vice president of the key laboratory of the Ministry of Education at the School of Chemistry of Peking University, and over 20 teachers and student representatives from the Institute of Insect Sciences and Applications of SCNU attended the symposium. Professor Li Sheng, president of the Guangdong Key Laboratory of Developmental Biology of Insects and Applied Technology, delivered a speech at the opening ceremony.
At the symposium, experts, scholars and postgraduates from relevant fields had heated discussions on current issues in DNA high level structure, such as G4 nuclease, G4 anti-aging function, the function and design of artificial nucleic acid and G4 cancer gene regulation. They reached consensus on the idea that Chinese scientists should jointly make positive contributions to the international development of this field.
Research on DNA high level structure arouses the wide interest of scientists and is considered of great importance. It is leading in the field of international nucleic acid studies, and may lead to important new theories and breakthroughs in applications. The Institute of Insect Sciences and Applied Technology organized this symposium with the aim of strengthening communication and cooperation, thus facilitating research of DNA high level structure.
