Institute of Technical Biology and Agriculture Engineering, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, CAS, which was founded in July 2011, located in the beautiful science island of Hefei, Anhui.

The institute is committed to the theory research, technology development and application in cross areas of physical science technology, biology and agriculture. It focuses on three major areas of work: irradiation technology and irradiation physical chemistry, ion beam bioengineering and environmental toxicology and security.

There are laboratory of Irradiation Apparatus and Physical Biology, laboratory of Radiation Biology and Environmental Toxicology, laboratory of Microorganism Bioprocess, laboratory of Plant Genetic Engineering, laboratory of Environmental Materials and other research divisions under the institute. Its research team which composed of an interdisciplinary background of biology, physics, chemistry and materials are cooperated and innovated. The institute establishes the low energy ion beam cells modification device which won the second prize in the national technical progress competition, Key laboratory of ion beam bioengineering of CAS and Anhui, and National engineering fermentation technology research center (Hefei).
