Since 1987, it also was granted permission to recruit students from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. 2003 saw the creation of Post-doctoral Research Station and in February 2006, with the approval of Chinese Ministry of Education, the school was renamed as Zhejiang Chinese Medical University (ZCMU). Today, the University strives to become a leading institution where research and teaching are organically integrated.[2]
