Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gradually going global.
On July 25, the opening ceremony of the International Workshop for Young S&T Talent From BRI Countries was held in Xining, capital of Qinghai province. The training program aims to further promote scientific cooperation in Qinghai and facilitate exchanges and collaboration among young talent in the sci-tech community from countries along the Belt and Road (BRI). This year's theme is to spread TCM culture and enhance the global influence of TCM technology.
According to the organizer, compared to previous workshops, this year's program primarily focuses on international exchanges, emphasizing cross-cultural exchanges between Chinese and foreign youth. The goal is to encourage young talent around the globe to play a more significant role in inheriting and disseminating the ancient science of TCM, contributing their wisdom to building a community with a shared future for mankind.
TCM is a crucial aspect of communication and cooperation among countries along the ancient Silk Road. Its exchange and cooperation have become a shining example of the high-quality development of the BRI.
The trio will conduct a series of experiments in fields such as life science, fluid physics, combustion science and materials science. Notably, this is the first time that fruit flies have been taken on a Chinese space mission as experimental subjects. What made scientists choose fruit flies? What experiment will they undergo?
