Reform and Innovation (1987--)
2009-08-26

  In 1987, CAS put forward the concept of "One Academy, Two Operational Mechanisms", based on the understanding that different types of S&T work had their own different regularities, and should be managed in different approaches and different modes, in order to break the closed system and to be open, mobile and cooperative.

  The main forces were organized to serve the national economic and social development, while a crack team was retained for the basic research and high-tech innovation.
