Costa Rica, China To Strengthen Scientific
Research Cooperation
Costa Rica and China signed a statement of
understanding on Thursday to develop joint
scientific researches.
The understanding was signed between the
Costa Rican National Institute of
Biodiversity (INBio) and the Chinese Academy
of Science (CAS), within the framework of
the Science and Technology Cooperation
Agreement signed by the two countries
earlier this year.
INBio officer Eric Mata said the two sides
could extend their opportunities to improve
human resources, joint projects, as well as
infrastructure and equipment development.
INBio scientific coordinator of Bio-prospect
Guiselle Tamayo said Costa Rica could offer
China all its knowledge and experience on
biodiversity conservation, which is helpful
to create sustainable economic development.
Tamayo also said his country could use
China's strength on medicinal plants and
microorganism study, which are the fields
Costa Rica interested in.
