| | Welcome to the China-Cornell-Oxford Project |
 | | The China Project was conceived in 1980-81 during the sabbatic visit of Dr. Chen Junshi, Deputy Director of Institute of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine, to the laboratory of Professor T. Colin Campbell, Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell |
 | | Sixty five counties in rural China were selected for study and the dietary, lifestyle and disease characteristics of populations of each county were compared. |
 | | The same counties and individuals surveyed in 1983-84 were re-surveyed in 1989-90, with the addition of 20 new counties in mainland China and Taiwan, and 20 additional families per county, thus yielding 10,200 total adults and their families. |
