The development of new Chinese medicine is shifting from imitation to creation. Since the mid-1980s, we have gradually introduced and learned advanced platform technology for developing innovative drugs, and gradually formed our own innovative drug development system through cooperation with scientific research institutions, focusing on the screening of natural drugs and small molecular drugs, combinatorial chemistry technology and modern biotechnology.
