China project
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The China Project is an ongoing extensive study of the correlation of disease epidemiology with the increasing urbanization of the many provinces of China, and with the changes in eating patterns and lifestyles which this Westernization is bringing.
[edit] Funding and dates of the project
The study is jointly funded by the Universities of Oxford, Cornell and the Government of China. Professor T. Colin Campbell of Cornell led the first two major studies in the 1980s and 1990s.
Campbell's summary of the results of this and other studies appears in his book The China Study.
