On December 8, the British journal Nature published a list of ten people who will make significant contributions to science in 2025. The list includes Liang Wenfeng, founder of the Chinese artificial intelligence company DeepSeek, and Du Mengran, a deep-sea research specialist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
In this list, Liang Wenfeng is called a "technological revolutionary." Nature notes that the Chinese AI company he founded, DeepSeek, developed a large-scale language model that "shocked the world," and "this open-source model has undoubtedly been a great boon to scientists."
Du Mengran, a research fellow at the Institute of Deep-Sea Science and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has been named a "deep ocean explorer" by Nature. The listing highlights her discovery of the deepest animal ecosystem on Earth at depths of over 9,000 meters, "witnessing phenomena previously unseen in the scientific world" at the very bottom of the ocean.
The list also included a "pioneer baby"—an American child suffering from a very rare disease. At the age of six months, K.J. Muldoon received the world's first personalized therapy using CRISPR gene editing technology. After treatment, he was able to smile at the world, and the new technology has brought hope for the treatment of rare diseases.
The list also includes former director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, microbiologist and immunologist Susan Monares, Indian data scientist Achal Agrawal, UC Davis physicist Tony Tyson, South African public health specialist Precious Matsoso, University College London neurobiologist Sarah Tabrizi, Brazilian agricultural researcher Luciano Moreira, and Israeli systems biologist Yifat Merble.
