International Research Collaboration Programs For Traditional Medicine
Objectives
To better promote the innovation and development of traditional medicine and enhance its global recognition and influence, we set up International Research Cooperation Programs for Traditional Medicine. These programs aim to facilitate research cooperation through China's National Key R&D Program and then boost the commercialization of scientific and research findings through traditional medicine funds. Highlighting the evidence-based research on acupuncture, herbal medicine and traditional medicine, we are willing to conduct exchange and cooperation in science and technology innovation and commercialization with different countries, territories, international organizations and multilateral cooperation mechanisms. Hopefully, these efforts may contribute to improve the research quality in traditional medicine and thus increase its role in global health system.

Mission and Objectives
The establishment of CCEBTCM sub-centers aims to bridge the gap between scientific evidence and clinical practice, addressing the long-standing issue of academic silos in traditional medicine. This initiative seeks to deepen the field of evidence-based traditional medicine research by fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.

1.International Cooperation in Acupuncture Research
Three major research priorities in include 1)mechanism studies on how acupuncture regulatesacupuncture research the nerve-endocrine-immune-metabolism network, activate the body's self-healing ability and thus facilitate homeosta-sis; 2)Clinical research and mechanism studies on acupunc ture for pain, soft tissue injuries and cardio-cerebrovascular diseases; and 3)studies on acupuncture standardization and efficacy evaluation system.
2.International Cooperation in Herbal Medicine Research
Four major research priorities in herbal medicine research include 1)the quality control and standardization of complex herbal systems; 2)the development and utilization of herbal medicines; 3) the clinical efficacy and action mechanisms of herbal medicine for disease treatment; and 4) the sustain-able use of traditional herbal medicine resources.
3.International Cooperation in Evidence-Based Tradition-al Medicine Research
Five major research priorities in evidence-based tradition-al medicine research include 1)the registration and reviewstandard system for clinical trials of traditional medicine; 2)the standardization and normalization of unique techniquesin traditional medicine;3)clinical efficacy evaluation oftraditional herbal medicines; 4)multi-evidence integrationmethodology for traditional medicine; and 5) quality controlin traditional medicine research.

Sources and purposes of the project funding
1. National Key R&D Program of China
These programs aim to establish a close collaborationmechanism between researchers and institutions acrosscountries, focusing on key research processes and facilitat-ing the flow of researchers.
The National Key R &D Programs of China include keyspecial projects of 1)International Cooperation in Scienceand Technology Innovation between Governments;2)Strategic Technological Innovation Cooperation; and 3)Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Applicants must meet the specific requirements for apply-ing to the National Key R&D Programs. The leading applicantand participating institutions, universities or enterprisesmust be registered in Mainland China with qualifiedchannels for international cooperation, research facilitiesand R&D capabilities. Alternatively,institutions from HongKong and Macau may apply upon negotiated agreementswith institutions from Mainland China.
Application Website: National Science and TechnologyInformation System, Public Service Platform (http://service.-most.gov.cn).
2.The TCM Development Funds (e.g., Guangdong Hengq-in Zhongying TCM Private Equity Fund)
These funds aim to facilitate the commercialization oftraditional medicine research findings by science andtechnology innovation enterprises and accelerate theirmarket-driven operations.
Applicants should be enterprises preparing for an lPO andhigh-growth enterprises in startup stage or expansion stage.These funds will not support individuals, laboratories orteam-based projects.
