What does Tu Youyou's award inspire contemporary college students?
1. Scientific research needs academic confidence and cultural confidence. Tu Youyou is engaged in artemisinin research. Although he seems to be "closed and conservative" at present, he was full of passion and belief in winning. Tu Youyou and his team had no conditions to create conditions, so they started the indigenous law. After 19 1 experiment, they finally succeeded, which is really indomitable. "Two bombs and one satellite" and synthetic insulin are no exception, both of which are derived from the power of faith. Not only that, the scientific researchers of that era had the spirit of dedicating themselves to the country and science (such as Deng Jiaxian), even if they did experiments with their own bodies. This is incredible for some people at present. \x0d\ The success of Tu Youyou and his team also benefits from cultural self-confidence. Artemisinin research originated from the records of Gehongelbow's emergency prescription in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and was based on the belief in traditional medical classics. They persevered and finally achieved positive results. \x0d\ On the other hand, what China's current science and technology education community lacks most is not scientific research conditions, but academic and cultural self-confidence. Modern China was ravaged by foreign powers, which was simply attributed to the "backwardness and ignorance" of traditional culture. This cultural inferiority complex has not been eliminated, such as the "pseudoscience" theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Therefore, Europe and the United States are the only leaders' mindset, which makes it natural to follow the trend step by step. If other countries study engines with four times the supersonic speed, China will follow suit instead of building new planes, and will eventually be controlled by others. If the experience of studying abroad and SCI papers become the yardstick of talent appointment and performance evaluation in some scientific research institutions and universities, then Chinese scientific and technological personnel are in danger of becoming slaves of European and American universities, and the security of national science and technology culture is worrying. If traditional researchers such as China's philosophy, history, literature, philology, folklore and traditional Chinese medicine (medicine) are also forced to study abroad for the sake of Mi and Liang, then the disintegration of culture is inevitable. \x0d\ Second, we should establish mechanisms and systems conducive to the growth and innovation of all kinds of talents. The first person to win the Nobel Prize in Science has neither an academician title nor a doctorate title, and has no experience in studying abroad, which brings embarrassment to China's talent appointment and evaluation system. Although I don't agree with the radical theory of abolishing the academician system in China on the Internet, the "weak heel" factor of the system itself is worth considering. Due to the lack of public interests in modern people, even if there is a Bole like Cai Yuanpei, he dare not rashly stick to a model in employing people. In order to avoid cronyism, a series of Chinese-style one-size-fits-all management methods were born. In the 1990s, a master's degree was needed to enter scientific research institutes and universities. With the "incubation" of doctors like mushrooms after rain, nowadays, to enter key research institutes and universities, you need the doctor's name plus study abroad experience. It is unknown whether there will be a trip to the moon in 50 years. The seemingly fair management system has given those who abuse power for personal gain an opportunity. Fake and shoddy academician achievements are not uncommon. So many Tu Youyou have been turned away. How to make "low-educated" and "non-professional" Hua, Qian Mu and Guo Moruo give full play to their talents without letting Fang Hung-chien speculate is a difficult problem in the future reform of China's scientific research system, personnel system and even political system. \x0d\ Third, scientific research should be a little non-utilitarian, which requires the spirit of silent cultivation. Tu Youyou and his team started the experimental research from 1969 according to the arrangement of their superiors. Although 197 1 achieved remarkable curative effect in the second half of the year, 1974 was fully recognized. The first Chinese paper was published in 1977, and it was in the name of "Artemisinin Aid Group". English papers were not published until 1982. Their scientific research is not directed at large scientific research funds and awards, but is driven by a mission. This year's three Nobel Prize winners in Physiology or Medicine are all over 80 years old. They never dreamed that they would win the grand prize. Tu Youyou's enlightenment warned people that scientific research should be a little non-utilitarian and have the spirit of sitting on the bench. The more utilitarian, the less vulnerable to setbacks. On the other hand, the current research in the field of science and technology education in China shows that it seems normal to be eager for quick success and instant benefit, and they will kill the goose that lays the golden egg for early fame and fortune. \x0d\ Fourth, flattery is a national taboo. It is certainly gratifying for Tu Youyou to win this honor, but the Nobel Prize must not be regarded as the highest or even the only evaluation standard of scientific research achievements. You know, Yuan Longping, Wang Xuan and other China scientific and technological elites' contributions to mankind are far from being covered by the Nobel Prize. Nor can we infect the sanctity of science with a glorious heart. The author understands that the former residence of Tu Youyou's hometown was marked with a sky-high price of 65.438+0.5 billion yuan (RMB); A few years ago, after Mo Yan won the prize, the vegetation around his former residence was stripped off. What these expose is the potential cultural inferiority and kitsch habits. China has a long history and splendid civilization, which has a great influence on the world and is an inexhaustible motive force and source of China people's cultural self-confidence. Simply obsessed with foreign countries, worshiping foreign things and obsessing over foreign things is a national taboo. \x0d\ 5。 The size of scientific research results does not depend on the amount of investment. Scientific research results are often out of proportion to investment. It is said that the cost of developing Chang 'e I in China is only equivalent to the cost of one kilometer subway. The conditions for Tu Youyou scientists to engage in artemisinin research are very simple. They started with the indigenous method and bought three vats as experimental equipment. Now, some researchers are eager to keep up with international standards and compare with foreigners. Since the implementation of the strategy of "rejuvenating the country through science and education", China's annual investment in science and technology is considerable, but there are not many high-level and innovative achievements. A lot of money is wasted due to neglect of supervision, and equipment is idle. It is necessary to improve and perfect the relevant system.
