Prof. Winnacker is a prominent biologist who has served as President of the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG) and as the first Secretary General of the European Research Council. He has promoted a number of initiatives to enhance scientific cooperation between China and Germany, in particular the establishment of joint research institutions and measures aimed a nurturing excellent young scientists.

HFSPO congratulates Profs. Arima and Winnacker for receiving this award, which recognizes their commitment to promoting scientific excellence throughout the world.

The International Science and Technology Cooperation Award was established in 1995 and is conferred by the State Council of the People's Republic of China on only a few foreign scientists or scientific organizations every year.
