  1. Capturing the growth in Chinese authors: An Editor’s perspective Xiangdong Wang, PhD, MD, Prof Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Clinical Bioinformatics Director of Biomedical Research Center Fudan University Zhangshan Hospital

  2. 25 20 Billion (RMB) Yuans From National Grants 15 10 5 0 85-90 01-05 96-00 91-95 06-10 • Amount of Grants from National Nature Science Foundation of China • It has increased >1000% within last 20 years • It has increased >100% vs 2001-2005 • There are also grants from Ministry, Province, City and universities

  3. 30 25 20 Number of published articles From Chinese scientists (X105) 15 10 5 • It has increased by nearly 700% from the previous 10 years • It was about 4.6% of total PubMed articles during 2000-2009 • It has 9549 professional journals in Chinese (2008) 0 1980-1989 1990-1999 2000-2009

  4. Criteria of successes: Scientific research achievement Or Scientific research production Master students Or PhD students Scientific publications Or SCI papers/Impact factors Clinical trial Or Market Applicable patents Or Discovery patent Economic benefit Or Profit

  5. Total number of granted projects No of granted common projects For example: No of granted junior projects 1200 1081 994 1000 900 842 828 800 709 711 672 647 612 Number of Granted Projects Per year per university 593 566 545 600 503 407 361 400 314 258 238 198 198 170 167 151 200 0 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 • It needs about 5-10 persons per project (about 5000-10000) • It needs about 2-4 articles per project (about 2000-4000) • It needs an IF of around 1-3 per article (around 3000-10000) • It needs three years to complete the granted projects • It needs at least about 1000 articles with approx total of 3000 IF per year

  6. Capturing the growth in Chinese authors We need to understand their challenges and opportunities Challenge 1: Strategy Thinking Opportunity: New & Different Challenge 2: Study design Opportunity: Population and specificity Challenge 3: Confidence Opportunity: Show your power

  7. Challenge 1: Strategy Thinking Opportunity: New & Different How to help them How to show data strength What are the weaknesses What are the questions Why we want to do it BMC Study plan Experiment Results analysis Paper write-up When and what they should think How to answer questions What the references or comparisons are What is new and important What the story is How to follow the regulations

  8. Challenge 1: Strategy Thinking Opportunity: New & Different How to help them Consider… Study design Data analysis Effective description Rights and regulations The full picture Underlying mechanisms BMC

  9. Challenge 2: Study design Opportunity: Population and specificity How to help them Answer WHY, WHY, and WHY BMC Clinical research combining Biotechnology Clinical Scientific Research

  10. Challenge 2: Study design Opportunity: Population and specificity How to help them BMC Different from descriptive study Except Disease

  11. Challenge 3: Confidence Opportunity: Show BMC power How to help them Make them active Make them positive Make them motivated Make them confident Make them feel reachable BMC Publication

  12. Study Design Comparison between Western and Chinese Doctors Different thinking Simple & clear Over & details

  13. DO STUDY DON’T STUDY Comparison between Western and Chinese Doctors Different Attitude Can, I can Not sure

  14. Comparison between Western and Chinese Doctors Different response Discussion & solution Explanation & personal To the Editor’s decision

  15. Comparison between Western and Chinese Doctors Different development Good read Good Tech Plan & think Action soon Start carefully Productive Creative Repetitive

  16. We have organized Med Writing Program named “Editor’s Voice” since 2007 and had more than 400 attendances in 2010 • Number of courses on Med Writing is increasing • We are writing the Book entitled “How to Write Medical Papers” edited by Profs Bai and Wang • We are asked to organize the writing course for PhD students

  17. International Society for Translational Medicine Chinese Medical Doctor Association 中国医师协会 Strategy of Capturing the growth 1). Combine international and national strength 2). Share the expertise resources 3). Benefit all parties

  18. Capturing the growth in Chinese authors: Help them & Develop together

  19. Thank you!
