The experiment of traditional Chinese medicine is a new development discipline and it plays an important role in cultivating innovative talents of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In recent years

with the rapid development of the national traditional Chinese medicine and its new positioning requirements

combined with the new college students cognitive characteristics

we have revised and republished the experimental TCM (Third Edition) textbook

which highlight the characteristics of scientific research cases as guidance

and it is applied to Eight-year program medical undergraduates. By the questionnaires

the results show that this teaching methods guided by scientific research case

is helpful to train students to use modern experimental methods to research and develop the quality and ability of traditional Chinese medicine

and popularize the great achievements of contemporary Chinese medicine research. It is helpful to enhance college students'sense of responsibility for the study of TCM modernization.We suggest that the course of TCM be set up in the colleges of traditional Chinese medicine.
