The Chinese plateau area includes all of Tibet and parts of the Qinghai, Xinjiang, Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. As reported, the plateau area in China is about 257.2×104 km2, which accounts for approximately 26.8% of China’s land area. Until 2006, approximately 12 million people lived permanently at altitudes between 2,200 and 5,200 m on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Much scientific research regarding how to prevent and treat high altitude disease is needed in China, and it has become difficult to manage the amount of grants on high altitude research in China. This paper summarizes the experiments on high altitude research management at the Third Military Medical University in Chongqing, China. These experiments included the following: (1) improving the scientific research management system; (2) selection of quality grants to support from the Key Laboratory of High Altitude.. Read More»
