]]>Is it dangerous to take my research to China?http://www.sinodanishcenter.com/news/is-it-dangerous-to-take-my-research-to-chinaWed, 21 Dec 2011 00:00:00 GMThttp://www.sinodanishcenter.com/news/is-it-dangerous-to-take-my-research-to-chinaOpinions were many when experts discussed how foreign researchers working in China can and should protect their research results. But no one would testify to the title of the seminar. In fact, Flemming Besenbacher, iNANO, argued that it is dangerous not to take your research to China. The more than 50 scholars and administrators who participated in the seminar at DTU on 1 December 2011 took home helpful and thought provoking insights regarding university related intellectual property rights (IPR) and collaboration with Chinese partners.  The seminar featured two experts on IPR and China - Thomas Pattloch, Taylor Wessing and Ulrike Tagscherer, Chinese Academy of Sciences - as well as three Danish senior scientists with extensive experiences from collaboration with Chinese partners. The seminar was organized by TECH-TRANS, Danish Innovation Center, Shanghai and SDC.

To emphasize the joint collaborative efforts of this new education, each course has a Chinese and a Danish co-organizer that discussed the detailed planning and organization of each course during the workshop. In addition, time was allocated to talk about progression within each course and also between the courses. This was done to achieve a coherent education where the students will be taught the skills in the beginning of the education that are needed for the more advanced courses. In addition, the most optimal overlap between the courses was discussed. Finally, a proposal of the teaching resources from both Chinese and Danish side was formulated for the courses that will run in the fall of 2012 including some of the best Chinese and Danish scientists within neuroimaging and neuroscience.
 
The second day was allocated Chinese-Danish research collaborations and was initiated by visits to the labs of CAS institutes with Prof. Yong Fan, Institute of Automation, Prof. Yan Zhuo, Institute of Biophysics, and Prof. Zengqiang Yuan, Institute of Biophysics as hosts. These visits were very enlightening for the Danish scientists and promoted interesting discussions as well as reveal several avenues of collaborative research projects. In addition, time allowed for short scientific presentations by all participants resulting in an overview of the research interests of the participants. To implement these collaborations, research stays in China and Denmark are essential and several exchanges of students and post docs were arranged. Furthermore, two Danish SDC funded PhD students participated in the workshop, which gave them the opportunity to discuss their projects with their Chinese co-supervisors as well as plan their stays at the Chinese labs.
