  1. Introduction to China Platform Amy Huang, M.D., MHSA Program Manager for China Initiatives University of Michigan Medical School November 1, 2011

  2. Agenda • Why China • China Platform • – institution to institution collaboration • How did UMHS-PUHSC JI get started • Where are we at

  3. University of Michigan Medical School Mission Statement “To educate students, physicians and biomedical scholars and to provide a spectrum of comprehensive knowledge, research, patient care and service of the highest quality to the people of the state of Michigan AND BEYOND.”

  4. Fall 2011 Chinese Student Enrollment

  5. Why China? • 1080 UMHS employees holding China citizenship • 19 UM Medical School Departments • collaborating with 31 Chinese Universities • 30+ students from China currently enrolled • in our Medical School • Joint Lab – Peking University • Popular location for medical student electives

  6. International Collaborations: Joint papers from UM Med School Faculty and Faculty at Foreign Medical Schools (# of papers last 5 years, based on location of first author) U.S. not included

  7. “Collaborations” • Communication/exchange (email, shared discussion at a meeting) • “Visit” or “Delegation” • Faculty &/or student-trainee exchange • ‘Memorandum of Understanding’ • Shared Research Project • Shared Research Lab • Programmatic Development

  8. Strategic Platform = Institution-Institution Initiative

  9. Strategic Platform = Institution-Institution Initiative • New translational research initiatives resulting in major impact studies • A ‘brokerage’ for those wishing to partner around education and research • A mechanism to provide seed funding and to facilitate competitive funding • Outcome based education initiatives that support above

  10. Clinical ActivityUMHS vs. Top Four Chinese Medical School

  11. Strategic Partner: Peking University Health Science Center • Excellent Research and Education • Similar organizational structure • Engaged leadership support • First Clinical Research Institute in China

  12. Starting points for collaboration Mutual interest in developing shared translational research and education programs with a focus on: • Liver Disease • Lung Disease • Cardiovascular Disease • Core Technologies (e.g. tissue biorepository, drug development, bioinformatics)

  13. What is University of Michigan hoping to achieve? • To enhance translational research capacity and productivity • To enhance a qualified workforce for basic science and clinical research • To attract excellent students • To compete successfully for grants/endowments requiring international partnership

  14. What is Peking University Health Science Center hoping to achieve? • To provide expertise on study design, data interpretation, publication review, etc. • To establish training programs focused on specific diseases • To build infrastructures for translational and clinical research

  15. Joint Institute Activities • Joint translational and clinical research • Exchange of faculty members, medical residents, fellows, and other researchers • Exchange of students • Joint lectures and symposia • Exchange of academic information and publications • Joint determination and management of shared intellectual property • Joint research on the science of collaboration.

  16. How will we measure success? • Numbers of collaborative projects • Numbers of external grants for collaborative projects • Numbers of joint publications • Numbers of trainees • Numbers of faculty, researchers, and students in the exchange programs

  17. Joint Institute Launched October 2010

  20. If successful, what will the Joint Institute look like in 2015? • A research trajectory resulting in high impact, transformative, collaborative studies, on prevalent diseases • ‘self sufficient’ funding from: - Chinese Government - U.S. extramural sources - Industry, Foundations, Philanthropy

  21. Where are we in the JI process • Six pilot grants have been approved with two others in preparation. • Joint Institutional Review Board • Progress on a common mechanisms for biomedical informatics and biorepository • Successful training course and frequent exchanges
