Nature is one of the most prestigious scientific magazines with a long history in the world. It was first published on June 4th 1869 165438. Unlike most scientific papers and magazines today, they are devoted to a special field.
It is one of the few magazines that still publishes many first-hand research papers in scientific fields (other similar magazines include Science and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, etc.). In many scientific research fields, many of the most important and cutting-edge research results are published in the journal Nature in the form of short messages.
The main readers of Nature are scientists engaged in research, but the abstracts of articles in front of the magazine enable the general public to understand the most important articles in the magazine. Editorials, news and special articles at the beginning of the magazine report things that scientists are generally concerned about.
Including the latest news, research grants, business situation, scientific ethics and research breakthroughs. Magazines also introduce books and art related to scientific research. The rest of the magazines are mainly research papers, which are often novel and of high scientific and technological value.

However, the magazine still has high expectations for China's scientific research prospects. In view of the fact that the research papers written by China accounted for 8.5% of all published papers in the series of research journals of Nature in 20 12, the editors of the supplement of Nature magazine identified China as one of the "five key countries".
