Supported by 108 Chinese Academy of Sciences research institutes all over China, the Virtual Science Museums of China website ‘translates’ scientific information into content that can easily be shared and appreciated by people who are not professionals. VSMC also makes an effort to establish a virtual community space, where both scientists and the general public can meet in order to better understand each other, by means of open and unbiased communication. Also aimed at fostering better understanding between China and the world at large, VSMC actively develops international partnerships.
