Academician Chen Runsheng: Focusing on the Development of Synthetic Biology Industry
The theme of this conference is "New Quality Productivity Leads Change, AI Technology Empowers Innovative Development". It brings together senior experts and scholars in the industry, as well as executives from pharmaceutical, medical, and health enterprises, to explore the development direction and cutting-edge trends of the health industry under technological innovation and policy support.
New quality productivity: Key words in the pharmaceutical industry Chen Runsheng, academician of the CAS Member, emphasized in his speech that new quality productivity is one of the most frequently mentioned keywords in the pharmaceutical industry this year.
It originates from the breakthrough of technological revolution, innovative allocation of production factors, and deep transformation and upgrading of industries, demonstrating the characteristics of advanced productive forces such as high technology, high efficiency, and high quality.
The core of new quality productivity lies in innovation, including innovation in technology and business models, as well as innovation in management and systems. These innovations enable scientific and technological achievements to be transformed into real productivity, stimulate emerging industries, and promote the deep optimization and upgrading of industrial structure.
Synthetic Biology: The Golden Race of the Future "Chen Runsheng specifically mentioned that synthetic biology, as an emerging interdisciplinary field that integrates modern biology with multidisciplinary systems, is hailed as the third biotechnology revolution.
Synthetic biology, through engineering methods to design synthetic genomes, demonstrates the enormous potential of transforming basic scientific research into practical productivity, and is a "golden race track" full of infinite possibilities.
Synthetic Biology: Breakthrough Effect Chen Runsheng further pointed out that by designing and constructing new biological pathways, synthetic biology technology can produce important drugs that were previously difficult to manufacture on a large scale, such as anti-cancer drugs and vaccines.
This can not only significantly reduce production costs and improve production efficiency, but also greatly enhance the timeliness and effectiveness of treatment, bringing higher survival rates and quality of life to patients.
Basic research, industry university research cooperation, and innovative talent cultivation are extremely important. Chen Runsheng particularly emphasized the importance of basic research and innovative talent cultivation. He stated that basic research is the source of technological innovation, revealing the mysteries of life and the laws of nature to us.
Only by delving deeper into the essence of life can we better utilize cutting-edge technologies such as synthetic biology and promote the sustainable development of the big health industry.
At the same time, the cultivation of innovative talents is also the key to industrial development. It is necessary to establish a diversified and open education system, encourage students to explore unknown fields, and cultivate their innovative thinking and practical abilities. Only in this way can we continuously supply high-quality talents to the industry and promote its sustained prosperity.
