On the morning of March 11, a delegation from Tianjin University (TJU) visited the Minhang Base of the National Facility for Translational Medicine (the Translational Medicine Facility), accompanied by Prof. Zhang Xianming, who showed the delegation around the Translational Medicine Building and the Instrumental Analysis Center.

At the meeting, Zhang introduced the project planning, construction strategy, goals, and history of the Translational Medicine Facility. The two sides had an in-depth discussion on the organization and coordination mechanism between the construction command and the relevant departments of SJTU, as well as the management of data files, funds, and the construction audit during the construction process.

Heads of the Translational Medicine Office then introduced the SOP documents that are being implemented recently for construction management, and the continuous improvement of the operation norms of the Translational Medicine Facility, focusing on the “STAR” program (SJTU Trans-med Awards Research), which is an independent research program established by SJTU to promote interdisciplinary research to solve clinical problems.
