然而，在这份亮眼的成绩单中，作为老牌直辖市的天津却不见踪影。 同为中国重要科教城市，天津为何掉 队？ 是科研实力萎缩，还是转型步伐滞后？ 2025年11月，国际权威期刊《自然》发布的科研城市榜单引发热议：全球前十名中，中国城市独占6席， 北京连续9年稳居世界第一，上海紧随其后，南京、广州、武汉排名上升，杭州更是从第13名"跳级"冲进 十强。 自然指数（Nature Index）被公认为全球科研实力的"试金石"，其排名依据城市在82种顶尖自然科学期刊上 的论文贡献份额。 2025年的榜单显示，中国城市不仅数量上占据十强中的六席，更在质量上实现突破：北京以5501.45的份额 遥遥领先，上海份额达3151.61，同比增长近20%，南京、广州、武汉的份额均超过1500，杭州则以 1351.70的份额首次跻身前十。 与中国的上升态势形成鲜明对比的是，美国城市在十强中的份额全面下滑。 纽约、波士顿、旧金山湾区等 虽仍在前十，但调整后份额均呈负增长。 自然指数主编西蒙·贝克指出："中国城市在多数学科领域持续巩固领先地位，尤其是化学、物理科学和地 球与环境科学三大领域。 " 其中，中国城市首次包揽化学领域全球前十，物理科学 ...

Core Points - The recent "Nature Index - Research Cities" report published by Springer Nature ranks the top ten research cities globally, with Beijing, Shanghai, and New York metropolitan area leading the list [1][4] - China now holds more than half of the positions in the top ten research cities, with six cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, and Hangzhou [4][10] Group 1: Ranking and Methodology - The ranking is based on the contribution share of cities in publishing papers across five scientific disciplines: physical sciences, life sciences, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, and health sciences [8][10] - The methodology uses a scoring system where each author of a paper shares the contribution score, allowing for a more nuanced measurement than simple paper counts [8][10] - Shenzhen is notably absent from the list, as it is categorized as a technology innovation hub rather than a research city, which focuses on academic contributions [8][46] Group 2: Performance by Discipline - In physical sciences, the top cities include Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan, with China dominating the list [11][14] - For chemistry, China occupies all top ten positions, showcasing its strength in this discipline [14] - In life sciences, the leading cities are predominantly in the U.S., with New York and Boston at the forefront, while Beijing and Shanghai also feature [17] - Earth and environmental sciences see Beijing, Nanjing, and Guangzhou leading, with strong representation from Chinese cities [20] - Health sciences are led by Boston and New York, with Beijing and Shanghai also making the list [23] Group 3: Insights on Emerging Cities - Guangzhou and Hangzhou have shown significant improvement, with Hangzhou making its debut in the top ten, indicating a rapid rise in research capabilities [26][27] - The presence of strong universities, such as Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, is crucial for the city's research output, contributing significantly to its ranking [39][40] - Guangzhou's research strength is supported by institutions like Sun Yat-sen University, which plays a vital role in the city's scientific contributions [43][44] Group 4: Comparison with Shenzhen - Shenzhen is recognized as a leader in technology innovation, with a high number of PCT international patent applications, but it lacks the academic research output that characterizes the cities on the list [46][47] - The city has a robust export structure, particularly in high-tech products, indicating its strength in applied technology rather than pure research [48][50] - Shenzhen's innovation ecosystem is driven by major tech companies, contrasting with the academic focus of the ranked cities [52][54]

主编今天扔给我一个题，说广州这次干到全球科研城市第六名了，排名超过香港、深圳、杭州，但这些不是重点，重点是咱还打赢了旧金山湾区。 更重要的是，现在科研搞起来了，广州的城市形象也该更新了，不能老是早茶、拖鞋、收租三件套！ 我问旧金山在哪里？主编说，就是硅谷板块的头牌城市，它的郊区有几个公司蛮有名，比如苹果、谷歌、特斯拉、facebook这些。 然后，他让我写一篇10万+，但不要有老登味儿，要写出少年感，写出很通俗但又很专业、很简洁但又很有信息量的爽感…… 听完之后，我感觉自己就像是个被迫登月的打工人。 我问，依据、依据、依据是什么？会不会是野榜啊？ 他说，权威专业，包的包的，自然杂志、自然杂志、自然杂志，全球高端上档次。 好，写到这里，居然已经摸鱼了300多字，现在开始进入正文吧！ 01 广州，现在是全球科研第六城 11月16日，全球著名的学术机构施普林格·自然（Springer Nature）发布了《自然》增刊 "2025自然指数-科研城市"。 根据榜单，全球十大科研城市依次为： 北京、上海、纽约都市圈、波士顿都市圈、南京、广州、旧金山湾区、武汉、巴尔的摩–华盛顿、杭州。 广州较上一次排名上升两位，由全球第8 ...

过去几十年间，中国科研在国际舞台上演绎了一出「后来者居上」的传奇。 论文地址：https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.05917 从跟跑到领跑，国际科研团队中的中国身影 曾几何时，中国学者因论文数量激增而被称为「论文大国」，然而论文质量良莠不齐； 而今，中国正逐步摆脱「数量取胜」的刻板印象，以更高的科研质量和领导力崭露头角。 在国际科研合作的长跑比赛中，那位曾遥遥领先的选手开始感受到来自东方的脚步声 —— 中国正从追随者变为领跑者。 这个转变不仅体现在发表论文的数量上，更反映在科研合作中角色的转变和成果影响力的提升上。 一篇发表于顶刊 PNAS（美国国家科学院院刊，中科院 1 区）的中美合作的的论文通过大量分析得出了该结论。论文作者来自武汉大学与美国芝加哥大 学、加州大学洛杉矶分校等。 在全球科研合作团队中扮演领导者角色，是衡量科研强国地位的重要标志。 长期以来，美国、欧洲等发达国家科研人员往往主导国际合作项目，而中国学者更多扮演跟随或辅助的角色。然而这种局面正在迅速改观。 数据显示，中国科学家在双边合作团队中担任「领衔」角色的比例正大幅上升。 2010 年，中美合作论文中担任团队领导的中国科研 ...
