The Ministry of Science and Technology, the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Education, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Natural Science Foundation of China jointly issued a document and adopted a number of measures to strengthen the original basic research of "from 0 to 1".
The "Work Plan for Strengthening Basic Research from 0 to 1" jointly formulated by the five departments aims to fully implement the State Council's opinions on strengthening basic scientific research, give full play to the source supply and leading role of basic research in scientific and technological innovation, and solve the problem of lack of original achievements in basic research from 0 to 1 in China.
It is reported that the plan puts forward a number of specific measures from seven aspects: optimizing the original innovation environment, strengthening the original orientation of the national science and technology plan, strengthening the training of basic research talents, innovating scientific research methods and means, strengthening the original innovation of the State Key Laboratory, enhancing the independent innovation ability of enterprises, and strengthening management services.
In terms of optimizing the original innovation environment, an evaluation system conducive to original innovation will be established. Including the implementation of representative evaluation system, focusing on evaluating the scientific level and academic contribution of representatives, so as to return the thesis to academics; Establish a new evaluation system for state key laboratories; Establish an evaluation system for basic research projects that promotes originality.
Optimize the original innovation environment
Optimize the original innovation environment, establish an evaluation system conducive to original innovation, support universities and research institutes to arrange basic research independently, reform the formation mechanism of major basic research projects, deepen international cooperation and exchanges, and strengthen the construction of study style; Strengthen the original orientation of the national science and technology plan, strengthen the original orientation of the National Natural Science Foundation, highlight the important original orientation of the national science and technology plan, and highlight major scientific issues in key core technologies.
Strengthen the training of basic research talents, establish and improve the training mechanism of basic research talents, implement long-term projects for young scientists, and support young scientists to participate in national science and technology plans. Innovate scientific research methods and means, strengthen the design and research of major scientific and technological infrastructure and high-end general scientific instruments, and vigorously support independent research and innovation of scientific research means.
