with the rapid development of modern science and technology, life sciences and medicine have become one of the fastest growing, most active, and most influential scientific and technological innovation fields, and they have formed a leading force in a new round of technological revolution. it is clearly stated in a series of important policy documents such as the "several opinions of the central committee of the communist party of china and the state council on deepening the reform of institutions and mechanisms and accelerating the implementation of innovation-driven development strategies", "the outline of the national innovation-driven development strategy" and the "thirteenth five-year" national science and technology innovation plan. it is proposed that health and health technology innovation should be laid out as a key priority area.
in the "guiding opinions on comprehensively promoting health and health science and technology innovation", the emphasis is on promoting the protection and development of chinese medicine, and strengthening the protection and utilization of chinese medicine resources. it is necessary to actively promote the inheritance and innovation of chinese medicine, further enrich and develop the theory of chinese medicine, give full play to the advantages and characteristics of chinese medicine in the field of prevention and treatment of major diseases, and focus on solving the clinical problems of chinese medicine and bottlenecks that restrict the effectiveness and improvement of chinese medicine. to give full play to the characteristics and advantages of our chinese medicine technology innovation, we must not only inherit and develop, but also go to the world.
in the guiding opinions, another highlight is to strengthen the construction of medical talents. talents are the first resource for innovation. the "innovation guidance opinions" will accelerate the cultivation and gathering of high-level innovative talent teams as a key task for deployment.
one is to vigorously cultivate and introduce high-level scientific and technological innovation talents. the second is to focus on creating top talents and cultivating young talents to create the backbone of health and health technology innovation. the third is to train and cultivate a group of scientific and technological management teams with clear specialization and professionalism in the field of hygiene and health, and continuously improve the level of scientific and technological management and service capabilities. relevant experts pointed out that various talent plans should not be too many, otherwise it will make researchers busy with various titles and unable to study quietly. it is necessary to attach importance to the combination of clinical and basic, and highlight collaborative cooperation.
for the comprehensive promotion of technological innovation and transformation of prenatal health, relevant experts suggest that the decision-making orientation of the allocation of scientific research funds should be adjusted, and more attention should be paid to the leading role of clinicians in innovation. at the same time, it encourages the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and further stimulates the enthusiasm of scientific researchers in terms of incentive mechanism and fiscal and taxation policies.
