The Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) was founded in 2001. The Institute has a strong and young scientific community. Scientists in the Institute work with both plant and animal models to address fundamental questions in life sciences, such as genetic control of growth and development, gene expression, signal transduction, structural and functional genomics, and bioinformatics. As China owns the biggest agricultural market in the world, researchers in the Institute have also made significant efforts on water saving agriculture and agronomic studies, mainly emphasizing on the improvement of crop productivity and quality as well as biosafety.
There are four highly interactive Centers located in the three campuses of the Institute: Plant Genomics, Developmental Biology, Human and Animal Genetics and Agricultural Resources. In addition, the Institute has a core facility for Molecular Biology, an Experimental Animal Core Facility and an Experimental Station for Crop Plants .
