On January 6, the theme sharing meeting of the first Zhong Nanshan Youth Science and technology innovation award of "paying tribute to the youth of war epidemic" was held in Guangzhou. Zhong Nanshan, the winner of the "Medal of the Republic" and academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, encouraged the young scientific and technological workers to deeply cherish their patriotism, sharpen their ambition to serve the country, and boost the development of national medical and health undertakings with greater responsibility. Zhong Nanshan mentioned that innovation is the soul of the nation and we should continue to adhere to innovation. He also stressed that discovery and invention are not equal to innovation. Only by creating economic and social benefits on the basis of discovery and invention can they be called innovation. Young scientific and technological workers should adjust the concept of "article is the last step" and let the achievements play a guiding role in reality. Zhong Nanshan pointed out that the driving force for young scientific and technological workers to carry out scientific research work is not only curiosity and interest, but also a sense of mission. In the mission of "want me to do", young medical science and technology workers should study tasks, find interests, promote Huawei from love to pursuit, and finally form innovation. Referring to the attitude of young scientific and technological workers in research and learning, Zhong Nanshan stressed that we should respect the facts. He mentioned that books and authoritative views should be learned, but they are not always right. Only the results of personal practice or seeing are the most credible. "Medicine is an interdisciplinary subject that needs unity and cooperation. The development of medicine must be closely linked with disciplines such as pharmacy, informatics, engineering, artificial intelligence and big data." Zhong Nanshan said. For the award-winning young people, Zhong Nanshan commented: "in the field of medical science, it's not easy for our young people to make achievements. But I feel that it's the best time to work at this age." "Not only have ideals, but also have dreams; not only have requirements, but also pursue; not only have ambition, but also strive for excellence; not only have enthusiasm, but also have passion." Academician Zhong Nanshan encouraged young scientific and technological workers. (outlook new era)
