1 FUDAN BIWEEKLY For International Community on Campus Issue th Feb Announcement Dear all foreign friends: Traditional Chinese New Year is coming up. We sincerely wish you all the best in the Year of Monkey! Research Spotlight Fudan University Contributes to Robots Industry in Chongqing City Chongqing Nanshang Robot Scien-tech Co Ltd signed an agreement with Fudan University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences Chongqing Green Intelligent Technology Institution on Jan 18, Chongqing Daily reported. These three parties will jointly establish a national institute focusing on key technological components of robots such as the speed reducer, electrical machine, and controller. Located at Longyanhe Industrial Park in Nanchong District, Chongqing Nanshang Robot Scien-tech Co, Ltd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chongqing Nanshang Investment (Group).

All these new robots will be put into operation this February. "Chongqing has formed a whole industrial chain of R&D, manufacturing and inspection, with a total output volume of over 10 billion yuan. It has also enjoyed good momentum in whole robots manufacturing including painting robots, welding robots, medical robots and education robots," said He Guotian, director of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Chongqing Institute Robots Inspection and Assessment Center. He also noted that the establishment of a national research institute is expected to lead to breakthroughs in key technology in robots and promote the development of the robots industry in Nanchuan district or even the entire Chongqing Municipality.

It s naturally beautiful and located right at the end of Metro Line 10 in the city s northeastern Yangpu District. New Jiangwan City s name, which translates to estuary, stems from its location right by the Huangpu River. Real estate development started, and Fudan University extended its campus in the area. Back then, this place was like a gem in the city, Yao said. Now, there s residential buildings and shopping complexes. Before there were these buildings, many birds stopped by here on their migration path south. Now, there are fewer, said Yang Deqing, a lecturer at Fudan University s school of computer science and enthusiastic bird watcher. Though the campus has fewer people than a park would have, it s still an islet, and a few rows of tall buildings outside the campus have blocked the birds path, he said. There s two easily accessible locations to enjoy nature in Jiangwan City. One is the Fudan University campus, situated by a small creek and dotted with tree, while the other is the corridor along Zhengyue Road ( 政悦路 ), right across Jiangwan Road. (Source from China Daily)
