The Shennongjia Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey Field Scientific Observation and Research Station has once again been rated “Excellent” in the annual performance evaluation of Hubei Province’s science and technology innovation platforms, according to a notice released by the Hubei Provincial Department of Science and Technology on June 1.
