中国设立2020年科学发展目标
China sets 2020 vision for science
Goals include commercialization of research and emphasis on energy, biomedicine and information technology.

China is betting that an ambitious programme of applied research will help to secure its future as an economic superpower. Innovation 2020, unveiled last week by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), maintains support for basic research. But the plan will place a new emphasis on translating the research into technologies that can power economic growth and address pressing national needs such as clean energy, said Bai Chunli, vice-president of the CAS, at the academy's annual conference in Beijing, where the plan was announced.
Innovation 2020 is an extension of the Knowledge Innovation Programme (KIP) launched by the CAS in 1998. Under the KIP, the academy streamlined its often overstaffed and outdated institutes, attracted outstanding Chinese researchers who had trained abroad, and tightened up the way it evaluated project proposals and performance. But the CAS now needs to support new priorities, says Duan Yibing, a policy researcher at the CAS Institute of Policy and Management in Beijing. China has become a global economic power, and the world's financial crisis has made scientific innovation more important to economic success than ever before, he says. "Things are a lot different now compared to 13 years ago."
Although the budget of Innovation 2020 is yet to be announced, insiders say it will be part of a continuing surge in the nation's science spending (see 'Spend, spend, spend'). Indeed, the CAS's expenditure on research and development (R&D) in 2009 was about 20 billion renminbi (US$3 billion), seven times the level in 1998, according to a KIP assessment report also released last week. This year's budget for the National Natural Science Foundation of China will increase by 70%, from 10 billion renminbi last year.
Innovation 2020 will kick off with new projects this year in seven key areas, including nuclear fusion and nuclear-waste management; stem cells and regenerative medicine; and calculating the flux of carbon between land, oceans and atmosphere. Other priority areas include materials science, information technology, public health and the environment.
To coordinate resources better and to foster multidisciplinary research, the academy will set up three research centres for space science, clean coal technologies and geoscience monitoring devices. It also plans to build three science parks — in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong province, respectively — to accelerate the conversion of basic research into marketable products, especially in renewable energy, information technology and biomedicine.
Pan Jiaofeng, deputy general secretary of the CAS, says the KIP's track record bodes well for the success of the new programme. By the CAS's reckoning, in 2009, researchers that it funded published 3.5 times as many papers in journals listed by the Science Citation Index (SCI) as in 1998. Crucially, the number of papers published in the top 1% of SCI journals, as judged by their impact factor, was 12 times that in 1998. The CAS also calculates that research and development by the KIP generated an income of 140 billion renminbi and tax revenue of 22 billion renminbi in 2009 — respectively 19.5 and 14.5 times the levels in 2000.
But the report acknowledges that there is substantial room for improvement. For example, CAS researchers should aim to become leaders of the international scientific community, and shift their focus away from generating as many papers as possible and towards genuine originality and innovation.
With its emphasis on applied research, the new initiative also "presents a major challenge to the management and organizational capabilities of the academy", says Richard Suttmeier, a science-policy researcher at the University of Oregon in Eugene. He notes that most CAS institutes are focused on academic disciplines and lack the infrastructure needed for commercializing research or directing it towards national needs.
Others think that the emphasis on applied research, national needs and revenue could stifle curiosity-driven research. Without that, says a Shanghai-based researcher who declines to reveal his identity, "it would be very difficult to have genuine innovation". 2020年中国营养科学和技术发展研究 爱情论坛 - 高校情缘交友网...回帖数：2中国营养学会 营养学研究主要涉及人体营养和食物营养两个大的领域.在学术发展方面,... 当时,化学家开始注意到活的物质.生物化学、生理学等生命科学学科开始建立和发展.营...www.gxqingyuan.com/Forum/sh... - 2009-09-23-快照-2020年中国营养科学和技术发展研究 爱情论坛 - 高校情缘交友网..." 上海中长期科学和技术发展规划纲要( 2006-2020年)文件类型:DOC/Microsoft Word- 文字版上海中长期科学和技术发展规划纲要( 2006-2020年) 一、上海中长期科技发展的背景与... 3、重大新药创制 探索药物研发新途径,开辟疾病治疗新领域,促进上海医药产业由仿制为...www.chinashippinginfo.net/...c-2010-09-11-科学和技术发展规划纲要( 2006-2020年)" 国家中长期科学和技术发展规划纲要 (20062020年)文件类型:DOC/Microsoft Word- 文字版同时,蛋白质科学研究成果将催生一系列新的生物技术,带动医药、农业和绿色产业的发展,... 4.全面推进中国特色国家创新体系建设 深化科技体制改革的目标是推进和完善国家创新...www.most.gov.cn/...28601_0.doc-2011-01-14-科学和技术发展规划纲要 (20062020年)"[标签:content2]
