    Zhangjiang Lab Represents Big Step for Science Hub Initiative

    SHANGHAI'S ambition to be a global innovation and science hub took a giant stride on September 26 with the unveiling of Zhangjiang Lab.Several national-level major science facilities in Zhangjiang including Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility ( SSRF ) and National Center for Protein Science ( NCPSS ) will be integrated into SARI to make the lab better serve the science community.

    SHANGHAI'S ambition to be a global innovation and science hub took a giant stride on September 26 with the unveiling of Zhangjiang Lab.
    　　The lab, jointly established by the city government and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was unveiled in Pudong’s Zhangjiang Science City. Shanghai Party Secretary Han Zheng, President of Chinese Academy of Sciences Bai Chunli, and the city’s Mayor Ying Yong attended the opening ceremony.
    　　“The lab will serve as a comprehensive national science center to promote basic science, and aims to attract top researchers from across the world. Officials have set a target to become a world-class national laboratory by 2030.” Mayor Ying remarked.
    　　“In a bid to develop the area into a “national science center” of global influence set forth by President Xi last year, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Shanghai Municipal Government work closely and efficiently by introducing innovative policies and adopting practical measures to ensure the development of the lab.” said Bai Chunli in his address.
    　　"In the beginning of the lab’s development, we will focus on building up major scientific facilities to make breakthroughs in fundamental sciences," said Wang Xi, Director of the lab, who is also the President of Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SARI-CAS). "Particularly on photonics (the physical science of light), life science, information technology and brain-inspired intelligence technologies, an interdisciplinary between life science and information technology," Wang added.
    　　Several national-level major science facilities in Zhangjiang including Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) and National Center for Protein Science (NCPSS) will be integrated into SARI to make the lab better serve the science community.

    SARI-ShanghaiTech International Summer Camp Held Successfully

    “Gaoke Cup” Student Innovation and Practice Project- International Summer Camp, which was co-organized by Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SARI) and ShanghaiTech University (ShanghaiTech) was successfully held from July 22nd to July 29th, 2017.


    　　“Gaoke Cup” Student Innovation and Practice Project- International Summer Camp, which was co-organized by Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SARI) and ShanghaiTech University (ShanghaiTech) was successfully held from July 22nd to July 29th, 2017.  
    　　Four teams composed of 14 students who won the first and second prizes in the “Gaoke Cup” Innovation &Entrepreneurship Competition took part in the summer camp to visit six top-tier UK universities, namely the University of Oxford, Cambridge University, Imperial College London, University College London, University of Bristol and Cardiff University. Students exchanged ideas with British scientific and management teams through academic exchanges, and obtained the experience of open and rigorous British education system. On the other hand, the activity helped to broaden the students’ horizon and provide them the chance to introduce SARI and Shanghaitech as well as the construction plan of Shanghai Zhangjiang comprehensive national science center. 
    　　Funded by Zhangjiang Hi-Tech District Management Committee, the activity also got support from the Foreign &Commonwealth Office and British Consulate General Shanghai.

    Demo Project for an Energy-Efficient Building Aims to Cut Energy by 40%

    On July 20th 2017, Launch Ceremony of CAS-NEDO Energy Efficiency Demonstration Project was held in Shanghai.


    　　On July 20th 2017, Launch Ceremony of CAS-NEDO Energy Efficiency Demonstration Project was held in Shanghai. By incorporating Japan's advanced energy-saving technology into the new Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Research Facility of Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SARI-CAS), the project aims to realize energy saving of 40% in air conditioning and lighting use compared to conventional systems.
    　　New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), Yasui Architects & Engineers, Inc., Pacific Consultants Co., Ltd., and Sanki Engineering Co., Ltd. have been collaborating with SARI on introducing a building energy management system (BEMS), which can comprehensively monitor and control energy-efficient equipment with energy-saving technologies to optimize energy consumption, at the Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Research Facility (total floor area:16,000m2) since 2014. Construction of this building was recently completed in Pudong New Area, Shanghai by SARI. It is the first cooperative project between Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and NEDO.
    　　Comparison of energy consumption between the project system vs. a conventional system
    　　- Conventional system
    　　*Assuming energy consumption in the same building using a conventional system
    　　3,450 MJ/m2//year
    　　(55.3 TJ/year ÷16,000m2）
    　　- Demonstration system
    　　*Expected level of energy saving achieved by the equipment introduced in the project
    　　2,090 MJ/m2/year
    　　(33.4 TJ/year ÷16,000m2)
    　　 -40% compared to the conventional system
    　　During the demonstration phase, building operational data will be collected until March 2018 to validate the efficiency of the energy-saving technology. It is designed to trigger the deployment of energy conservation technology in China's architecture field, increasing the number of such energy-efficient buildings in the country.
    　　The ceremony was attended by Mr. Munehiko Tsuchiya, Executive Director of NEDO; Mr. Daisuke Hirayama, Consul of the Japanese Consulate-General in Shanghai; Mr. Qiu Huasheng, former Deputy Director-General, Bureau of International Cooperation of CAS; Dr. Qu Ronghui, Vice President of CAS Shanghai Branch; Mr. Huang Weiguang and Mr. Wang Maohua, Vice Presidents of SARI.
