The museum of our university took part in an exhibition held in Shanghai Science and Technology Museum this month, in which about eleven museums subordinated to eleven universities (including Fudan and Shanghai Jiaotong etc.) participated. The theme of this activity is “Love of Campus, Fashion of Science and Soul of Nation”. The exhibition will last through the whole month. People going there shall have the opportunity to see various fantastic items such as ancient coins, music instruments, Chinese pottery and admire marshal art and Chinese opera.

　　The items in the exhibition hall contributed by our museum are a combination of traditional culture and modern science which represent TCM theories and the methodology of health preserving. There is no doubt that you will be very proud to see the magnificence of our museum with your own eyes among all the participators. A lot of priceless items have been exhibited there such as gourd-shaped bottle (葫芦瓶), bronze figure marked with acupuncture points（针灸铜人）, hollow-carved bronze incense burner （镂空铜熏）and the first version of Bencao Gangmu （本草纲目）or Compendium of Materia Medica which was written by Li Shizhen etc.
