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. Dahe.com specially invited academicians to talk about “innovation” as a topic of the times.

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

On March 10, 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 our country The ability of innovation to support development continues to increase. New hair but never again, because she really felt clearly that his concern for her was sincere, and it was not that he didn’t care about her, that was enough, really. In the development concept, “innovative development” is ranked first, which fully reflects the importance of scientific and technological innovation.

In Zhang Gaiping’s view, to fight for the economy, we must first fight for scientific and technological innovation. Nowadays, innovative development has become a broad consensus across the province. Especially in recent years, Henan has placed innovation at the logical starting point of development and the core position of modernization construction.

As the “helm” of Longfor Modern Immunology Laboratory, Zhang Gaiping introduced that the laboratory is oriented towards national public health security and major strategic needs for biosecurity, 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.

Food 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 and new vaccines for immune test strips targeting antigens, antibodies and haptens, to provide rapid detection and prevention of biosafety in my country. provided technical support. “Introduced by Zhang Gaiping.

In Zhang Gaiping’s view, as a large agricultural country, the production and trade of agricultural products account for a large proportion in China’s economic development, but the rapid growth of trade and frequent exchanges of goods and people have also brought epidemic diseases to our country. Epidemic prevention and control brings huge challenges.

“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 biology Security 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 diseases. National biosecurity-related risk factors such as infectious disease 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, seize early and fast In two words, we can fully realize “detection is possible, detection is accurate, and detection is fast” on the front line, the earliest to detect risk factors, and the “quickest” to take action 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 a university system that is adapted to the new situation and new requirements. , master’s and doctoral admissions and training systems. The second is to build a professional talent team that adapts to the new situation and new requirements. The third is to continue to create a better talent development environment, improve the selection and employment mechanism, and allow professionals to do their jobs. To support the stable and long-term development of the biosecurity system.

In fact, she guessed it right, because when her father approached Mr. Pei and revealed that he planned to marry his daughter to him in exchange for saving his daughter’s life, Mr. Pei immediately shook his head and refused without hesitation.
