The picture shows Wang Changfa, Dean of the Research Institute for Efficient Breeding and Ecological Breeding of Donkeys at Liaocheng University, introducing the cultivation of new donkey varieties. In late October, Zhu Mingxia, a teacher at Liaocheng University, and her team received good news. Their achievement of "intelligent and precise determination of animal phenotype and digital application technology" has been successfully transformed, with a total amount of over 1 million yuan received. This is another achievement that Liaocheng University has achieved in its agricultural disciplines since being approved by the National Donkey Genetic Evaluation Center this year. Deeply cultivate on the differentiated track and create core competitiveness. This is not only a "magic weapon" for Zhu Mingxia's team to repeatedly make new breakthroughs, but also a valuable experience for Liaocheng University to strengthen discipline construction. In recent years, as a regional university located in Liaocheng City, Shandong Province, Liaocheng University has been approved as the China Pacific Island Countries Climate Change Cooperation Center, promoting the landing of national key laboratories for macromolecular drugs and large-scale preparation. The school's four disciplines, including materials science, have entered the top 1% of the global basic science index database (ESI), while five disciplines, including control science and engineering, have entered the 2022 world first-class discipline list in soft science. Guan Yanping, Secretary of the Party Committee of Liaocheng University, believes that they have devoted themselves to promoting disciplinary construction, continuously promoting organized scientific research, and ultimately achieved fruitful results. At the end of October, when the reporter met Qu Feng, director of the Arctic Ocean Research Center at Liaocheng University, he was holding an Inuit mask to explain people and things in the Arctic Ocean. On the mask, in addition to elements such as human face, oars, seals, walruses, whales, ivory, and feathers, there are also elements such as the universe. In March 2018, Liaocheng University established the first Arctic Ocean Research Center in China, which mainly studies the history, society, culture, and ecology of the Arctic and the near Arctic. Building a research platform in characteristic fields has won development space for Liaocheng University. The above research center is not the only research platform built by the school based on characteristic disciplines. Last April, the China Pacific Island Countries Climate Change Cooperation Center was established at the school. At this point, Liaocheng University began in-depth research on the Grand Canal, the Yellow River, Pacific island countries, and the Arctic Ocean. Pacific island countries, due to their long-term isolation from mainstream world affairs, find it difficult to attract the 'attention' of researchers in other disciplines, and this is our opportunity, "said Chen Dezheng, director of the Pacific Island Countries Research Center at Liaocheng University. But as an interdisciplinary platform, how can we attract more talents to join? The answer of the center is to find ways to "manufacture" projects. For example, the China Pacific Island Countries Climate Change Cooperation Center has been established at Liaocheng University, attracting experts from different fields such as geography, oceanography, atmospheric science, and environmental engineering. Currently, 10 talent project-based teams have been established. Liaocheng University is located in the inland city of Liaocheng in Shandong Province, and its educational resources are not abundant. Differentiation is their development path. As early as September 2012, the school established the Pacific Island Countries Research Center, which was the first independent Pacific Island Countries research institution in China. To create a distinctive research platform, Liaocheng University not only actively responds to national strategies, but also delves deeper into the main battlefield of regional economy.
