Abstract
Objective To analyze current status and future directions of digestive disease research filed in China from previous application and funded projects under H03 code of National Natural Science Foundation of China during 2010 to 2017. Methods All kinds of application and funded projects under H03 code of National Natural Science Foundation of China during 2010 to 2017 were recorded to statistically analyze subordinate branches, distribution of applicants/institutions, interdisciplinary projects, and cultivation projects. Results The total number of application projects was increasing during past 8 years. The main research directions include gastrointestinal, hepatic, and pancreatic non-tumor diseases. Funded projects were mainly distributed in relatively developed areas and distinguished universities. The number of funded excellent/distinguished young scholar projects in digestive disease is small. Conclusions With funding aid from NSFC, fundamental research in China’s digestive disease field has progressed significantly. However, overall research capacity still need to be further improved. NSFC will continue to fund related research in this field according to its the 13th Five-Year Plan . Key words: National Natural Science Foundation of China; Digestive diseases; Discipline analysis
