"Are the research standards in China at the same levels as in the west?
The fact is under everybody’s eyes: the “asian giant” is running at an impressive rhythm, in all fields. Shenzhen Beike Biotechnologies, its hospitals and its laboratories are a bright example of such a technologic renaissance. Not many are aware that China has the most researchers with PhDs in the world. It’s because of the affordability of hiring educated researchers in China, that many of the leading five hundred companies -including Microsoft- have set up large research facilities in China.
But stick to medical matters, and let’s speak about those who have been studying stem cells since a long time: they have a lot of experience in bringing lab research into hospitals. What abroad still is “mere theory”, in China it’s something absolutely “practical”, i.e. clinical applications that are already helping thousands of people. We daresay that as far as stem cells are concerned, China has long time reached a level that West -for several reasons- is still far from achieving".
