Science In China
When we talk about international science, China doesn't often come to mind. But perhaps it should. At a time when their economy is booming and many western-trained scientists are returning to China, officials are committing more money to research and development efforts. In this hour of Science Friday, we'll take a look at China's science goals, and what scientists in the US are doing to contribute.
