Wuxi city is nearby the third largest lake the Lake Taihu which is known as the birthplace of China’s freshwater aquaculture. Wuxi has always been famous for its light industry and freshwater aquaculture as well. The Freshwater Fisheries Research Center (FFRC) of Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences (CAFS) is also located in the peninsula stretching into the Lake Taihu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the FFRC where I finished my study of snakehead fish.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

FFRC is located at the side of Taihu Lake, Wuxi, it was jointly emerged from \u201cTaihu Experimental Base for Fishery Enhancement\u201d and \u201cAsia-Pacific Regional Research And Training Center for Integrated Fish Farming\u201d both established in Dec. 1978. Now the Center is equipped with over 180 staff members, out of 43 are senior research fellows, 22 of them have been honored with the Government-granted Allowances, 17 of them are doctorate and other graduate advisors. There have awarded with 4 State-level prizes; 31 Ministry and Province-level prizes; 28 national patents. There are over 800 quality papers along with over 100 books of the subject matters. The dominant discipline in the center\u2019s research program consists of Genetic Breeding and Bio-techniques; Inland Fisheries Enhancement and Aquaculture; Principles and Practices of Integrated Fish Farming; Fishery Environmental Protection and Fishery Information etc. There are open laboratories respectively on \u201cGenetic Breeding for Aquatic Animals and Aquaculture Biology\u201d at the ministry level and \u201cInland Fishery Environment and Resources\u201d at the level of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences in addition to \u201cMOA Monitoring Center on Fishery Resources and Ecological Environment for Lower Reaches of Yangtze River\u201d; \u201cMOA Clinic Test Center on New Fishery Medicine\u201d; \u201cNational Center on Exotic Aqua-animal Introduction and Domestication and Genetic Breeding\u201d, which has successfully achieved new species as Jian Carp; genetic-improved Tilapia and Prawn. The fishery journal \u201cScientific Fish Farming\u201d is the largest circulation. The Center has continuously for the past 28 years undertaken national foreign-aid programs and in a position of authorizations for issuing Doctorate and Master degrees and is available with post-doctoral research center offered by \u201cWuxi Fishery College\u201d jointly established with Nanjing Agricultural University.
