-Pineapple ME Award: Professor of Sichuan University splits bricks (Associate Professor Wei, Department of Computer Science, Sichuan University)

Reason for winning the prize: personally teaching the principles of mechanics. Psychology Award: Children who lie early are smarter. Award-winning team: Li Kang, Children's Institute, University of Toronto Research content: Traditionally, children who lie are bad children. Li Kang's team at the Children's Institute of the University of Toronto believes that lying is an advanced function of the brain. A child's first lie is as precious as growing his first deciduous tooth and learning to walk, and it is also worth celebrating. That's what the acceptance speech said. Thanks to science, we can look at the fact that children lie objectively. This is a small step in science, but a big step in the concept of early childhood education; It is reported that the National Preschool Education Examination Center has begun to customize the standard and question bank of CET-6, which has been welcomed by early education training institutions. Math Award: 40% of math anxiety is born to win prizes. Team: Wang Zhe, Department of Psychology, Ohio State University. Research content: Some people are not interested in mathematics and are anxious. Wang Zhe's team in the psychology department of Ohio State University found that 40% of math anxiety disorders are related to genes. Pineapple U Award: Winner of the Four Quotations Poetry Competition of Jilin University Team: Wang Yabin, School of Automotive Engineering, Jilin University Research Content: Poets can only write poems in their own language, but science and engineering students can express their hearts in common language. Nanling Campus of Jilin University is a science and engineering college, with a male-female ratio as high as 7: 1. Wang Yabin, a single young man, put forward the idea of four-line poem, and received more than 80 submissions from six campuses/kloc-0, more than half of which came from our own campus. It is unscientific for such a young man who actively explores the romantic feelings of science students to have no girlfriend, so the pineapple science award made an exception this year and awarded him the pineapple U award. I hope young scientists can thrive in the world better. Medical Biology Award: Why East Asians Sweat for Love Team: Key Laboratory of Modern Anthropologists, Ministry of Education, Fudan University Research Content: Sweating is often considered an embarrassing thing on important occasions, but sweating is a necessary physiological function, and there are differences between East and West. Researchers from Fudan University, Chinese Academy of Sciences and other institutions found that about 30,000 years ago, a gene mutation occurred in central China, resulting in an increase in sweat gland density of 15%. Most East Asians carry this mutant gene. So East Asians are more love sweating. As the saying goes, genius is 1% inspiration and 99% sweat, so for East Asians, because they can sweat more, they may have less time to sweat after becoming a genius. Physics Prize: 92 yuan Invisibility Cloak Winning Team: Chen Hongsheng, Department of Information and Electronic Engineering, Zhejiang University Research Content: Invisibility is everyone's dream. Scientists spent a lot of manpower and material resources to make things invisible, but they still failed to achieve it. Based on the refraction principle of light, the research team of the International Academy of Electromagnetic Sciences of Zhejiang University made a stealth device that can make kittens disappear in natural light with glass, ruler and protractor. The invention has a wide range of uses and can meet the daily needs of hiding papers, smelly socks and private money. Chemistry Prize: Drosophila's preference for mate selection Award-winning Team: Xue Lei Team, School of Life Science and Technology, Tongji University Research Content: In order to explore the truth behind the chemical reaction of "love", scientists conducted experiments with Drosophila. It is found that no matter how old the female flies are, the male flies will choose to mate with them. When a male fruit fly is placed with two female fruit flies of different ages, the male fruit fly will give priority to the young female fruit fly-this is probably the instinct of all animals. Fantasy Award: Award-winning team of "Babe from Thunderbolt": Research content of "Babe from Thunderbolt" Crew: 1988 China's first children's sci-fi movie "Babe from Thunderbolt" caused a movie-watching craze. Zhang Zhilu, a screenwriter, graduated from the Department of Physics and understands children's psychology. He is a rare all-round science screenwriter. The shooting attitude of the crew is serious and rigorous, and the details of scientific phenomena are strictly scrutinized, making this film a scientific and beautiful work. Twenty-five years later, China has never seen such an excellent original children's science fiction film. China children's enthusiasm gradually turned to foreign children's works such as Texaco, Robot Cat and Sila. I hope to see more movies like Charlie Hebdo, which will make children's curiosity and imagination soar like the singularity of the universe. Invention Award: Shanda Robot Donkey Award-winning Team: Shandong University Robot Research Center Rong Team Research Content: There are a group of lively and cheerful young people in Shandong University Robot Research Center who have a robot donkey. They gave the robot donkey strong physical strength and heart. It can adapt to a variety of terrain, bear a lot of loads, resist lateral impact, climb mountains and climb slopes under snow, and cross forests and ice. Most importantly, this Xiao Lv has a stubborn and lovely temperament, and her firm posture always embodies the indomitable spirit, which is enough to become a national inspirational idol this year.

Pineapple Me award: a ruthless and beloved killer professor. This award is used to reward people who made outstanding contributions to science communication in the previous year. Professor Ding Zejun, a generation myth of the University of Science and Technology of China, shines brilliantly in this matter. His exam is "cruel": open book, unlimited scope and time, and many topics. It is said that someone took the exam for six hours. But he is deeply loved by the students. Medical Biology Award: Monkeys with blood relationship look more alike (Professor Lu from Institute of Biodiversity and Ecology, Zhengzhou University)

Lu's team spent five months shooting a series of facial photos of 26 monkeys from three maternal lines in Taihang Mountain, and analyzed the facial similarity by mathematical methods.

Math Award: How many times can a lollipop be licked (Golden Purple Team of Mathematics Department of new york University)

The research team put the lollipop into a tube washed with water, and photographed the dissolution process of the lollipop by time-lapse photography: regardless of the original shape and water flow speed, the lollipop is almost crescent-shaped when it is about to completely dissolve, while the lollipop with a diameter of about 1cm needs to be licked for about 1 000 times.

Psychology Award: Name Preference and Happiness (Cai Huajian, Key Laboratory of Behavioral Science, Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences)

Through the investigation of 304 pairs of twins, it is found that whether a person is happy has nothing to do with whether others like his name, but whether he likes his own name, both of which are influenced by the same gene to some extent.

Physics Prize: Why mosquitoes can't be killed by raindrops (Dr. Lide Hu, chief scientist of Biomechanics Laboratory of Georgia Institute of Technology, USA)

Lidehu used a water gun to simulate raindrops, and used a high-speed camera to shoot the process of mosquitoes being smashed. Mosquitoes have strong exoskeletons, which will fall with raindrops in flight, so they are less impacted and will not be killed by water drops 50 times heavier than them.

Chemistry Prize: Octopamine Determines Hunger (Wang Liming, Institute of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University)

Eating when you are hungry and looking for food everywhere are two different neural mechanisms. When fruit flies can't synthesize octopamine, they won't go out for food until they starve to death.

Invention Award: Tattoos that can generate electricity (Joseph Wang, University of California, San Diego, USA)

The power generation material of this power generation tattoo is lactic acid in sweat. Without considering the physical limit, letting an adult pedal a bicycle for six hours quickly can prolong the battery life of the mobile phone 1 second.
