摘      要：The Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI) of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) wasofficially founded in December 2003. Its predecessor, Beijing Huada Genomics Research Center, haspresented significant contributions to the development of life sciences in China by its excellentscientific innovations and achievements in the last five years. From the participation ofInternational Human Genome Project (HGP) to the independent completion of the whole-genome draft andfine maps of Chinese super hybrid rice genome, from the porcine genome research cooperated withDenmark to the international chicken genome research, and from the silkworm genome projectaccomplished together with The Southwest Agriculture University of China to the great contributionsto the national campaign against SARS, all these facts illustrate that BGI not only has afirst-class scientific research power in the world but also is full of devotion to the flourish ofscience and nation. During these years, we have upheld the strategy of Advance through projects,strive for innovation, grow through cooperation , in the aim of making BGI as one of the pioneers ofCAS climbing the peak of life sciences in the world.
