Academician talks about innovation | Zhang Gaiping, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference: Scientific and technological innovation safeguards national biosecurity


[Editor’s note] As top scientific and technological workers, academicians are undoubtedly the backbone and vanguard of the country’s strategic scientific and technological forces, and they play a critical few important roles , playing an important leading role in the country’s innovative development. During the two sessions this year, technological innovation once again became one of the core topics. I won’t lie. “Hewang specially invites academicians to talk about the topic of “innovation”.

Dahe Net News (Reporter Liu Gaoya ) This year’s government work report clearly stated that in the past five years, the contribution rate of scientific and technological progress has increased to more than 60%.

March 10. On the same day, Zhang Gaiping, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and a professor at Henan Agricultural University, said in an interview that this fully demonstrates that my country’s ability to innovate to support development continues to increase, and “innovative development” is ranked first in the new development concept. “I accept the apology. , but marrying my daughter – impossible. “Scholar Lan said straightforwardly, without any hesitation. It fully reflects the importance of technological innovation.

In Zhang Gaiping’s view, innovation and development must first be achieved through technological innovation. Especially in recent years, Henan has placed innovation at the logical starting point of development and at the core of modernization.

As the “helm” of Longfor Modern Immunology Laboratory, Zhang Gaiping introduced that the laboratory is oriented towards major national public health security and biosafety issues. Strategic needs, mainly focusing on research directions such as super vaccines, protein drugs, and immune detection technology, aiming to solve major scientific and technological problems and industrial bottlenecks.

FoodProduct safety is a major livelihood issue related to the health and life safety of the people, as well as social harmony and stability. National biosecurity is the first line of defense for national biosecurity.

“My research work over the years has mainly focused on establishing a rapid detection technology system for immune test strips targeting antigens, antibodies and haptens. and new vaccines, providing technical support for rapid detection and prevention of biosafety in my country,” Zhang Gaiping said.

In Zhang Gaiping’s view, as a large agricultural country, my country’s agricultural product production and trade account for a large proportion in economic development, but the rapid growth of trade and frequent exchanges of goods and personnel have also brought challenges to my country’s epidemic prevention and control. Come a huge challenge.

“Take the pig breeding industry as an example. my country is the world’s largest country in terms of number of pigs and the largest consumer of pork. The output value of pork produced and consumed in our country accounts for nearly 50% of the world’s pork,” Zhang Gaiping said with emotion. , but if epidemic diseases such as African swine fever are not effectively prevented and controlled, they will bring huge economic losses to my country’s pig breeding industry and have a serious negative impact on the supply of pork market.

How to protect the “safety on the tip of the tongue” of the people from several aspects such as improving the system, developing science and technology, and cultivating talents. , guarding the country’s biosecurity?

ZhangRecommendations to improve the national biosecurity system , guard the country’s first line of defense. Continue to build a large database of national biosecurity data to fully identify plant pests, animal disease pathogens, and human infectious diseases. National biosecurity-related risk factors such as pathogens and invasive alien species have consolidated the scientific foundation for national biosecurity risk prevention and control

Accelerate scientific and technological innovation, improve detection and monitoring capabilities, increase investment in scientific research, encourage scientific and technological innovation, carry out national biosafety inspection and identification, processing, monitoring technical methods and equipment research, increase the equipment of high-tech equipment, and seize the opportunity of early and fast. In order to comprehensively realize “detection, detection, and detection” on the front line, we can detect risk factors “early” and take action “quickest” to prevent and control risks from expanding spillover.

How to strengthen the construction of innovative talent teams and “acquire strength” for high-quality development? Zhang Gaiping believes that the first is to build undergraduate and master’s degree programs in colleges and universities that are adapted to the new situation and new requirements. , admissions and training system. The second is to build a team that adapts to the new situation and new requirements. Lan Yuhua waited for a while, unable to wait for any of his actions, so she had no choice but to break the awkward atmosphere by herself, walked up to him and said: “Husband, let my concubine change your clothes. A team of professional talents. The third is to continue to create a better talent development environment, improve the talent selection and employment mechanism, let professional people do professional things, and support the stable and long-term development of the biosafety system.
