China Pharmaceutical University

China Pharmaceutical University (CPU) is a specialized public research university in Nanjing, directly under the Ministry of Education and part of China’s Double First-Class initiative, with a large student body and a pharmacy-centered profile. CPU connects with industry through formal university–enterprise collaboration platforms and practice bases, including co-developed training and applied R&D with leading pharmaceutical companies. Its position within Nanjing and the broader Yangtze River Delta places partners near a fast-growing biopharma cluster and dedicated industrial parks that support innovation and commercialization. Research is backed by competitive national funding from the National Natural Science Foundation of China and ministry-level programs, with faculty frequently leading NSFC-supported projects. A dedicated technology transfer center manages IP, licensing, and industry contracts to streamline commercialization.
