Research Projects

The Academy's digital research platforms — applying evidence-based methods, structured data and AI to advance the Chinese medical sciences.

The Academy builds and maintains its own digital research platforms, structuring traditional and native materia medica knowledge and applying AI and real-world data to support evidence-informed research — the working foundation of our research programme in AI & Data Science in Chinese Medicine. Each platform below is itself a concrete research output, reflected in its data structures, verification methods and evidence synthesis approach.
