The Shanghai Institute for Advanced Immunochemical Studies is performing antibody and immunochemistry research, dedicated to the understanding of the basic structure and design of biological molecules.

Besides, seven large technical platforms including cell sorting, imaging, protein and gene, HTS, informatics, analytical and animal sciences are also being developed.

[20] In the future, ShanghaiTech aims to host 1000 faculty, including 500 adjunct professors from institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and other universities.

[21] Roger D. Kornberg and Kurt Wüthrich have both been professors, as has James E. Rothman, 2013 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

The team then "developed a catalyst combination of cerium and alcohol, which can convert methane into fuel at room temperature, with no need of heat or condensation.

[25] In September 2018, researchers at the school published an article saying they had successfully replaced genetic material in a human embryo that caused Marfan syndrome.

[26] A team at the school also "exploited the natural secretion of amyloid fibres from the bacterium bacillus subtilis for 3D printing to produce customized nanoscale biomaterials.

"[27] Nature Index tracks the affiliations of high-quality scientific articles and presents research outputs by institution and country on monthly basis.
