China Expands Science Globalization Trends

Scientific research is now a worldwide endeavor, with researchers from multiple countries collaborating on projects. In recent years, Chinese authorities and academics have begun to take advantage of these possibilities, resulting in a growing network of global scientific research. A Sino-French joint research institute in Shanghai has been in existence for six years and has produced breakthroughs in stem cell research and other fields. A separate Sino-Brazilian partnership has launched several satellites, providing information on deforestation in Brazil and earthquakes in China. As a result, scientific globalization not only offers new research, but also the fostering of local scientific talent that might otherwise have been overlooked. – YaleGlobal
