Chinese Sleep Research Society (CSRS) £¬ affiliated to China Association for Science and Technology, was officially approved in 1994 by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Linking with Chinese Academy of Sciences and Beijing Union Medical College Hospital , CSRS enjoys the reputation of the most authoritative professional academic institution in the field of sleep.
With the support of China Association for Science and Technology, the Ministry of Health and all stratum and with the joint efforts of Council and all the members, Chinese Sleep Research Society always adheres to all guidelines and policies of the Central Party Committee and the State Council. With the important thoughts - Deng Xiaoping Theory and the Three Represents as the guide, CSRS has accomplished a step-by-step development by implementing the scientific concept of development, building socialist harmonious society as the overall principle.
Within the society, there are five committees ranging from Academic Exchanges, Organization, Popularization of science, International Exchanges and Cooperation to Promotion of Science and Technology Industry. There are also two professional academic committees, sleep-disordered breathing and sleep disorders. We officially declared to the competent authorities according to law the established secondary branches: Sleep Physiology and Pharmacology, Mental Health Sleep, Sleep Environmental Engineering, the Traditional Chinese medicine Sleep, Sleep Environmental Engineering, and Sleep-enhancing Products etc. There are nearly 2,000 senior members nationwide, most of whom have high-class titles in sleep-related fields, such as clinical, basic, pharmacology, biomedical engineering, sleep-related industries and other relevant fields.
Chinese Sleep Research Society consists of Office, Academic Departments, the Ministry of Popular Science, Periodicals in the Edition Department, the Department of Clinical Research, Industry Promotion Center and other departments. In the future, CSRS will be further expanded. Core business activities include academic exchanges, training session, the popularization of science, health education and health promotion, exhibition displays and the promotion of transformation from scientific and technological achievements to products ,clinical evaluation, information dissemination etc. The society is now actively assisting the state department in drafting technical standards related to the field of sleep technology, formulating China guide of sleep disorders clinical treatment, China Public Sleep Health Guide and other important programmatic documents. These will standardize the certificate authentication of employees and technology assessment as well as lead a reasonable consumption, a scientific consumption and a clear consumption.
Adhering to the purpose: ”° Serve for construction and development of the academy; Serve for physical and mental health of the public; Serve for economic and social development.”± Chinese Sleep Research Society constantly expands and promotes the integration and development of sleep disciplines. On premise of respecting the law of the market economy development , we are promoting healthy sleep-related new technologies and new results to the majority of clinicians and the public. With advantages in terms of experts and network, we are enhancing public awareness of sleep and health standards, providing general practitioners, specialists, enterprises and institutions with high-quality professional services to strengthen self-discipline and industrial technology innovation, to promote transformation from scientific and technological achievements to practical productive forces, and to elevate the international competitiveness of sleep industry.
It is an important task for Sleep Research Society to strengthen international exchanges and cooperation. The Institute has established friendly relationships with the World Federation of Sleep, National Institutes of Health(USA), the United States Sleep Research Society, the European Sleep Research Society, Japan Sleep Research Society, South Korea Sleep Research Society and other international organizations. We are the director unit of the Asian Sleep Research Society .We have a mutual recognition mechanism for members of the governing units within the Asian Sleep Research Society.
Sleep science is becoming a new hot spot in the field of life science in recent years. It is not only an issue about physical and psychological health of the masses, but also related to military security, transportation safety and aerospace safety, industrial safety and aspects of the construction of the national economy and national defense. We believe that the sleep science will grow rapidly with the scientific & technological progress and economic & social development.
Since 2002, CSRS has launched a nation-wide campaign on "World Sleep Day" with a series of promotional activities. Good comments came from various sectors of society. Now World Sleep Day has become one of the important National Popular Science Days. These activities were greatly supported by Tiannian group, China Xilinmen Group, the United States Simmons Bedding Mattress,and other well-known enterprises domestically and abroad.
Although sleep science started late and has a weak foundation in China , Our research on sleep-related fields has now been in the ranks of the world's leading international level with more and more attention and concern from the society. It has been officially included in the "People's Republic of China Law on the Protection of Minors Bill" that the minors should be guaranteed to have adequate sleep time. Sleep has become an important indicator of China 's military academy students. Chinese Sleep Research Society will seize the historic opportunity, make continuous progress, constantly welcome all elites of the society to make joint efforts for the development of sleep science!
The innovation of sleep science & technology will lead everyone a healthy future! |
