State Key Laboratories (SKLs) focus on studies in the latest academic developments and important technological issues in relation to the economy, social development, health and security of China. Organizations hosting a SKL should have attained international standards and be in a pivotal position in their respective disciplines. They should be able to complete important state research tasks, and possess excellent research teams and favourable conditions for conducting research and experiment. Two SKLs were established at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2006 and 2008 respectively with the approval of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. The SKLs anchor their spearheading roles in oncology and agrobiotechnology research. In 2010, the University was further approved to establish two more SKLs, namely State Key Laboratory of Phytochemistry and Plant Resources inWest China and State Key Laboratory of Synthetic Chemistry. n n State Key Laboratory of Oncology in South China n (Partner Laboratory in The Chinese University of Hong Kong) * sklonc@med.cuhk.edu.hk; anthonytcchan@cuhk.edu.hk n n State Key Laboratory of Agrobiotechnology n (Partner Laboratory in The Chinese University of Hong Kong) ' ' 3943 8133 6 2603 6382 * sklabt@cuhk.edu.hk 8 www.cuhk.edu.hk/ipmbab/SKL/ n n State Key Laboratory of Phytochemistry and Plant Resources in West China (Partner Laboratory in The Chinese University of Hong Kong) ' ' 3943 4370 6 2603 5248 * icm@cuhk.edu.hk 8 www.icm.cuhk.edu.hk n n State Key Laboratory of Synthetic Chemistry ' ' 3943 6329 6 2603 5057 * hncwong@cuhk.edu.hk
