According to the Southern Metropolis Daily, on the morning of February 18, the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government held a province-wide high-quality development conference in Shenzhen.
Yan Ning, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the Shenzhen Bay Laboratory, spoke at the meeting. She said that this was her second Spring Festival in Shenzhen, and she felt not only the southern scenery and Guangdong folk customs, but also the speed of Guangdong and Shenzhen. , temperature and intensity.
This conference is the first meeting of the New Year held by Guangdong Province on the first working day of the Lunar New Year again after 2023. The theme is also focused on "high-quality development." At the
conference, Yan Ning said that he hopes to replicate and extend the luck he has enjoyed in the past 20 years of scientific research, so that more young people can continue to rely on their inner driving force in a relaxed and free environment. Instead of various temptations from the outside world, you can explore and display your potential without any worries, so as to make more truly original discoveries.
Yan Ning said that in just one year, her dream took root in Shenzhen, the city of dreams, and quickly blossomed and bore fruit. Starting from scratch in a brand new environment, we built a new mechanism of the Academy of Medical Sciences from scratch.
She said that during the year of preparations for the establishment of the Shenzhen Academy of Medical Sciences, the two words most frequently heard from government departments at all levels in Guangdong and Shenzhen were "service" and "guarantee"; everyone was not only diligent and pragmatic, but also dared to think and venture into . The site has been transformed from a rough room into a modern laboratory in just half a year. Opposite it, 10 meters away, is the bio-industry incubator "Gravity Bay".
“What’s even better is that the construction of our scientific research sites and talent recruitment are progressing in synchronization and coordination. Scientific researchers are directly involved in the design and decoration of laboratory and platform facilities, instrument selection, nesting to attract phoenixes and attracting phoenixes to build nests simultaneously, and layout It is reasonable and convenient to use, and all colleagues who have visited it will envy it," Yan Ning said.
Yan Ning said that once the dream platform is set up, people will come to pursue their dreams.
"Our Dream Platform, which is tailor-made for high-level international talents, has attracted and is attracting more of the world's top talents to achieve a two-way journey. Focusing on neurological and mental diseases, infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, reproductive development With aging, neurobiology, systems and computational biology, chemical biology, etc., we have attracted nearly 70 outstanding talents to independently lead the laboratory in Shenzhen Academy of Medical Sciences and Shenzhen Bay Laboratory, 95% of whom are directly recruited from overseas. "
Yan Ning said that while building venues and hardware, he also used a professional and international attitude to create a worry-free soft environment for scientific research, liberating scientific researchers from routine work, ensuring that they are fully committed to innovation, and for Guangdong The formation of the talent-strengthening pattern of the Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area provides an important strategic fulcrum. With the strong support of the Ministry of Education,
is creating a new smart program, adhering to "high starting point, internationalization, emphasis on intersection, breaking boundaries", integrating high-quality resources to explore new mechanisms for international educational exchanges and doctoral training in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area . At the same time, the policy advantages of Guangming Science City will be used to forge an ecological chain for the transformation of results and promote a new model of sustainable, high-efficiency, and large-scale innovative drug research and development.
"I feel very lucky. During the rapid development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, I am not a bystander, but a builder. In the past year, I have experienced the unprecedented joy of entrepreneurship and the achievement of making my dreams come true. So now I often joke that my honeymoon in Shenzhen has become a honey year and is developing into a honey life."
