I've thought about this before and wanted to say something about it.

Why do nationals rarely win Nobel Prizes? Is it really because we are not as smart as foreigners?

I am a Chinese, I am proud of China, we have four great inventions as early as thousands of years ago, all kinds of exquisite handicrafts are even more amazing to foreigners, we are not inferior to any country.

Reasons for development

A variety of innovative ideas, scientific research results are not simply found, from the proposed to research to practice to maturity, which requires time, although the development of our country in recent times, but after all, due to the short time, the accumulation of heritage is not as thick as other countries, which is reflected in all aspects, there are many Nobel Prizes, are other countries have been research and development for a long time or long ago successful research and development projects, their awards are just a notice! The award is just a kind of notice, or to implement.

Conceptual issues

Other countries, regardless of all walks of life, or high or low have innovative ideas, with our words is idle, in the case of food and drink, people will think wildly, but often there are a lot of inspiration is derived from these people. And most people in the country life pressure, work pressure, simply do not have the time, and no capital, and how to talk about innovation.

May be due to China's faster development, many people did not change from the previous thinking, the general environment is biased towards the old-fashioned, people do not have a strong acceptance of new things, often the emergence of new ideas or technology, people's first time is not to support, think about whether there is no use in the end, but with the old idea to criticize it, as if everyone says so, it seems to be really a fraud, this environment, there is how to have innovation it.

It is like a piece of land full of weeds, which supplies all its nutrients to the weeds, and there is no more nutrients or open space left for flowers.

From my perspective.

This issue has struck a chord with me since I first saw it. I am just a doctor who has been working in the clinic, and people who are not in the medical profession may not know that there are two types of doctors in hospitals, one being those like me who work in the clinic and often come into contact with patients, but they do not have a high status because I can only treat the sick.

One kind of people are those who publish academic papers. They do not have to see patients, they do not come into contact with patients, and they publish all sorts of papers and results, and so-and-so has reached the international level, which is nothing more than picking up the pieces of wisdom of others.

Do they actually touch the patients? Do they really know the types of diseases?

I have always worked in a clinical setting, always have, always will and always will.

I have been working in the clinic for more than 30 years, I have seen a lot of patients, seen many kinds of sudden mutations, during these years, through my own experience and research, I published the doctrine of neuromodulation, which can effectively treat coronary heart disease, cerebral thrombosis and other cardiovascular diseases, and most of them can be cured. I first asked some domestic former experts, and then was recommended to the United States Harvard University Massachusetts General Hospital to do a report, I was very excited, this is a recognition, after I came back, I applied for a national patent, and in the case of thousands of cases of patients who have been cured, and get is not praise, but ..... Oh.

Some people invited me to answer the question, I just stand in my point of view to help them analyze the condition, and say my treatment, some people's comments that I cheated money, and even some doctors private letter that I, they do not think, I am a Class 3 A hospital in the director of the doctor, I may say false, I cheat who money, I go out one day a week to clinic, fixed those who, see the end of it to go, you come to the more, I do not look at it, I use to lie to you! I don't think I'm going to be able to do that.

Maybe the credibility is not enough, I am now already contacting cured patients and organizing information to prepare for the impact of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, I have the qualification, I hope that next year you will see the Nobel Prize in Medicine is China.

Japan to get the Nobel Prize to the point of getting soft, this century in the Nobel Prize is second only to the United States, this is not Japan's achievements in this century, but Japan in the field of science and technology for a long time, like just sharing the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine Ben Shuyu's award-winning research began in the 1980s of the last century, in 1992 to get a breakthrough.

There are many factors that have contributed to Japanese scientists winning so many Nobel Prizes, and I think that the main one lies in the people, in the fact that several generations of Japanese scientists have been able to return to Japan after short-term study abroad, and have been dedicated to scientific research for a long time since then. It is a Japanese tradition that Shibasaburo Kitasato declined the invitation of Koch, the master of microbiology, to return to his country to serve at the end of the 19th century, and it can be said that as a result of this, he lost the opportunity to share the first Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine. Along the way he was offered professorships at Oxford University in England and Penn State University in the United States, but he was unmoved. This tradition has been carried on by Japanese scientists for more than a hundred years, including Benjamin.

Most of those Japanese coworkers I used to work with have returned to Japan, and for them, as long as they have the right position and get by, there is no comparison to the conditions in the US.

Chinese scientists have done the same, starting with the young children who stayed in the U.S. It is the tradition of Chinese scientists to serve the motherland after they have finished their studies. Now there are many who come back, but either they can't find a job overseas anymore, or they are trying to go back to get a second wife to cheat on their research funding, or they are hogging it both ways. This is one of the reasons for the huge gap between China and Japan in the field of science.

On the other hand, although there have been incidents of scientific falsification in Japan, most Japanese scientists are genuine scientists with a scientific worldview and thinking, and with the character and work ethic of scientists, which is the basis for Japan's leap in the field of science.

On the contrary, China, whether native-born or sea-born, is very unqualified in this respect. Let us say how many of those who stand up for Chinese medicine are returned from the sea and half returned from the sea? In terms of knowledge, they are in line with the times, but in terms of thinking, they lag behind the times. This is the second reason for the huge gap between China and Japan in the field of science.

Planning and perseverance are the main factors for Japan's success in the Nobel Prize.

Thanks for the invitation!

What factors are associated with Japan's 18 Nobel Prizes in 18 years?

"Japan's 18 Nobel Prizes in 18 years" should refer to the fact that Japan got 18 Nobel Prizes in natural sciences in the 18 years after entering the new century, and such a great achievement became a shocking phenomenon.

Shocked, we not only have to ask, why is this?

root (cause)

The root of the problem goes back to the last century, when the Western powers used high-tech ships and artillery to impose a new kind of "war" on the world's population.China, Japan, and other "uncivilized" countries, that national crisis.Crisis.

As the saying goes, a crisis is both a danger and an opportunity.

In the face of the crisis, Japan turned a crisis into an opportunity, and a campaign toThe Meiji Restoration, with the theme of "leaving Asia for Europe", led Japan to "Westernize" in all aspects, especially social system, ideology, education, and industry.

At that time, the advocate and creator of the "comprehensive westernization" movement.Famous modern Japanese thinkersFukuzawa Yukichi, in his Introduction to the Theory of Civilization, says: "If we wish to advance Japanese civilization, we must aim at European civilization, establish it as the standard for all discussion, and measure the merits and demerits of things by that standard."

In addition to rewriting the course of Japan'sThe deepest mark of the Meiji Restoration was stamped on the Chinese nation as a neighboring nation, in the form of the deepest humiliation.

From the Meiji Restoration in 1868 to the Sino-Japanese War in 1895 and the Russo-Japanese War at the beginning of the 20th century, "little" Japan transformed itself from a backward, closed-door country to a Western power in less than 40 years.

This deconcentration, besides the obvious industrialization, lies in the total westernization of the mind.

On the other hand, we are a little later in the foreign affairs movement, the "Chinese Western" guiding ideology emasculated the most urgently needed ideological emancipation, and became a doomed to failure, half-assed capitalist industrialization improvement, the society is still the same "unity of man and nature, yin and yang, five elements," the feudal society! Even today.

Elimination of the rights-based approach

Power-orientedism has been the most deeply rooted evil of our nation-state for thousands of years, and the social value of human beings is almost entirely embodied in "official position" and "power".

The constitutional monarchy on the political reforms of the Meiji Restoration in Japan, after which politicians were merely a general profession that was not so much respected, thus fundamentally eliminating the basis for the existence of the power-based system.

Only when the chronic disease of the power-based system is eliminated can people truly "live in peace and work in contentment".

For scientists, the "industry" is of course scientific research, scientists can obtain sufficient social status and reputation through achievements in the main scientific research, and do not need to "sell" scientific results in exchange for "vice-chairman of the National People's Congress", "vice-chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference" and other "positions of power" to reflect the social value. They do not need to "sell" their scientific achievements in exchange for "positions of power" such as "vice-chairman of the National People's Congress" and "vice-chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference" in order to realize their social value.

The "Great Leap Forward" in Japanese Education and Science

The 18 Nobel Prizes in natural sciences in 18 years of the new century are only the most concentrated manifestation of the "Great Leap Forward" in education and science in Japan.

In fact, this embodiment was manifested as early as the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War during the industrialization of Japan.

And, of course, it was the rise that fed Japan's militaristic ambitions and led to its devastation in World War II.

However, since Japan had already been completely westernized in terms of its ideology and political system, it could be said that it had already been completely "transformed". With this foundation, it is not surprising that Japan was able to create another economic miracle in the short span of 30 years, from the 1950s to the 1980s, after turning to peacebuilding and economic development.

Based on the fully westernized education system established from the Meiji Restoration and the rapid rise of the economy to become the second largest in the world, Japan greatly increased its investment in scientific research during the economic boom of the 1970s to 1990s.

As we know, the Nobel Prize is usually awarded for major scientific research results that have been proven by time to have great theoretical or applied value, which requires a certain time period.

The scientific achievements of Japan that won the Nobel Prize in the new century were basically products of that period.

In other words, in the new century, Japanese scientists have been awarded 19 Nobel Prizes in natural sciences in 18 years, which is the "realization" of the various accumulations of Japan for more than 100 years.

During the day today, I also saw someone in my circle of friends posting an image that a national newspaper had posted years ago, presumably about Japan threatening to win 30 Nobel Prizes in 50 years.

I think at the time people might have thought it was a joke, but today it seems that Japan did not make this bold statement just to talk, it seems that they are really serious about it.

So what are the factors or what kind of inputs have they made in Japan's fruitfulness in getting Nobel Prizes?

To begin with, it is their emphasis and commitment to basic research. They are not obsessed with short-term results or just emphasize practical research. Nobel Prizes are also almost always awarded in the field of basic research. It can be said that Japan's investment in and emphasis on basic research is an important factor in their thick and thin growth, and a solid foundation has been laid through extensive basic research.

Secondly, it is the tireless efforts of researchers, such as their rejection of academic misconduct. This is also evident in the Haruko Obokata incident, while on the contrary, the Han Chunyu incident, after a long investigation, only gave the conclusion that there was no subjective falsification.

Thirdly, there is also large-scale funding and policy support from the State, such as the five-year Science and Technology Basic Plan established by Japan under the Basic Law for Science and Technology, and it was in the second phase that Japan put forward the plan of "30 Nobel Prize winners in 50 years". At the same time, the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JSTA) has also provided researchers with a large amount of research funding support, for example, the 2012 Nobel Prize winner Shinya Yamanaka has received 300 million yen from the agency in the development of iPS cells.

Therefore, Japanese researchers can win the Nobel Prize thanks to a combination of many factors. At the same time, we should also see that as China has been increasing its investment in basic research in recent years, and the country has introduced policies to support basic research, then it is worthwhile to expect Chinese people to win the Nobel Prize in the near future.

Let's cheer for China's scientific research and look forward to Chinese scientists winning the Nobel Prize soon.

I remember when we were in medical school, our physiology teacher was a very charismatic teacher, his high-pitched voice, always lingering in my ears, and his words of wisdom I always remembered. I remember that he was a medical doctor who returned from a Japanese university (seems to be Shinshu University), and I remember that he once said to us in a physiology class, "Japan, a country that is developing very fast in the field of medicine, and the number of Nobel Prizes won is also very high, and I hope that we, China, can soon complete our surpassing of them." More than ten years have passed, Japan has won more and more Nobel Prizes, and we, China, have won two Nobel Prizes (one by Mr. Mo Yan and the other by Prof. Tu Youyou). I will talk about what factors are related to winning a Nobel Prize in the field of medicine (in fact, as a nobody who is a hundred thousand miles away from a Nobel Prize, I am a bit incoherent to talk about this issue here).

First, I think it has to do with the country's orientation. In a country that honors science rather than money, scientists are more able to produce world-leading inventions. When children grow up not dreaming of becoming stars or tycoons, when scientists are able to gain more respect, and when the country puts more energy, material and financial resources into scientific research, our science may really be able to catch up with that of the United States and Japan. It is obvious that our motherland has already done a lot in this regard, and I believe our country will do even more.

The second is the scientific researchers themselves. At present, there is no doubt that the United States and Japan are leading in science and technology. We know that some of our friends have learned advanced technology and advanced scientific knowledge after arriving in the developed countries of the United States and Japan, but some of them have left themselves in the United States and Japan to serve those "big bosses". However, "science has no borders, but scientists have their own homeland." There is also the integrity of scientific research, no matter how many temptations there are outside, they can stick to their own heart and explore the world of science for decades. In addition, participation in international and domestic academic exchanges and cooperation, as well as the cultivation and cooperation of the team, their own quality and other aspects are related.

Lastly, as a clinician and an ordinary citizen, I would like to congratulate and thank the scientists who have been awarded the Nobel Prize, and I would also like to express my gratitude to all the scientists who have been doing research and studies in a down-to-earth manner, and I would like to thank you for your perseverance and diligence. For, in the vast majority of cases, we, the people, are the beneficiaries of these inventions and creations.

The fact that the Japanese have won 18 Nobel Prizes in 18 years has been discussed by many people, so let me add something.

First of all, this is related to the seriousness with which Japanese people do things. In fact, the most important thing in scientific research is inspiration, followed by seriousness. In this regard, inspiration we can not say, the Japanese and the Chinese are almost the same, are very smart and conservative, in the idea of inspiration is actually not quite dare to play. But the Japanese are relatively more serious than the Chinese that is for sure. For example, the Japanese Tanaka Koichi, won the Nobel Prize, he is just a bachelor's degree in the company to do R & D work, why he can get the Nobel Prize, mainly or seriously, experiments are done again and again, the details are very serious, and really take the work as the basis of their own life. While we Chinese people work in the enterprise to do R & D, many people in the details may not be so serious, can fool the past to fool the past, anyway, is the work as a thing to make a living.

Secondly, this is still related to Japan's investment in scientific research, and not only does the government invest in it, but so do enterprises. The work for which Masatoshi Koshiba won the Nobel Prize used tens of thousands of photomultiplier tubes from a Japanese company called Hamamatsu. The price offered at that time was very cheap, and the company could be said to be unprofitable. But why did Hamamatsu support Koshiba? Although it was also for the purpose of advertising for itself, people were willing to take out the real thing to invest in it after all. Later so photomultiplier tube accident burned a lot, Hamamatsu continue to support. To change in China, it is estimated that it does not support, or look at your experiments done halfway, halfway to raise the price to 100 times, so that you can not buy, do not buy also can not. This kind of thing the Japanese do well, since to support, support in the end.

The fact that Japan has won 18 Nobel Prizes in 18 years is closely related to the fact that Japan has long emphasized education and basic research!

In the new century, the Japanese have made remarkable achievements in scientific research that are the envy of the rest of the world. This is closely related to the fact that since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has emphasized education, and has made nine-year compulsory education universal. As we know, only when the base of educated people becomes very large can universities find more talents who can be engaged in scientific research in the future. Therefore, the full blossoming of Japan's Nobel Prize is the result of the seeds planted 150 years ago!

Secondly, Japanese universities and research institutes can always maintain a sense of reverence in the face of scientific research and vigorously develop basic research. Give professors a more relaxed environment, allowing them to continue to try and explore. Instead of excessively demanding that results be produced within a short period of time. This also shows that basic research is also like the old Chinese saying: "the willpower of the willow becomes a shade". In Japan, professors are allowed to choose their own research direction and conduct research continuously, so that as long as time passes, some professors are bound to make breakthroughs.

In short, Japan can get 18 Nobel Prizes in 18 years, both its 150 years has been emphasizing education, the effect of accumulation; more seriously and devoutly face the effect of basic scientific research!

Japan's approach is to practice pragmatism, to let scientists lead scientific research, and to integrate into the international scientific community.

At the beginning of the year, I read the autobiography of Japanese Nobel Prize winner, physicist Shojun Koshiba, who did the experiment of detecting the nature of neutrinos in the depths of the mine, and the three-generation project out of the master and disciple of three generations of Nobel Prize winners, which can be said to be a great sight to behold. However, what impressed me most was not the scientific work itself that he talked about, but his attitude toward scientific research and the interest of famous Japanese scholars in science.

As we all know, Japan is a society that attaches great importance to tradition, and the boundaries between superiority and inferiority are very strict. I just saw a joke about two Japanese girls studying in China, they had a fight, one of them said, "tmd, you still speak with so many honorifics, we came to China is not to breathe free air. Shiba Changjun as a high school student, naturally familiar with these, he also took advantage of a day than the manager of the B side of the "advantage", low purchase price, for the country to save scientific research funds, because it is the taxpayers' money, a penny can not be spent recklessly.

However, one of the things that Oshiba himself was very proud of was that he pushed Japanese scientists to break the traditional Japanese notion of inferiority or superiority and to be brave enough to question the presenter, even if it was a much higher status presenter, to his face when they were having an academic meeting. Because he noticed that in the Americans, if the presenter made a mistake and the others in the audience, especially the presenter's students, did not point it out, people would laugh at the presenter for being a fool. Therefore he required his students to raise a quality doubt when listening to academic presentations. His approach was supported by several prominent Japanese scientists and gradually changed the culture of the Japanese academic community.

This "abandonment of Japanese traditions and incorporation of international standards" is, in fact, a manifestation of the spirit of science. Because scientific innovation requires independent thinking, and in particular, it requires criticizing the mistakes of predecessors. If you continue to work on the basis of the mistakes of your predecessors, the results will inevitably be wrong, meaningless, and even ridiculous. The more significant the scientific results, the more you need to question and criticize the courage of authority, which is independent innovation. The most taboo in the development of science is that it is inbred.

I am afraid that this kind of scientific spirit of courageous criticism and independent thinking is exactly what is lacking in China's education and scientific circles. For example, the motto of Tsinghua University, which was originally 16 words, was later chopped at the waist.

Tsinghua has invited back Nobel Prize winner Yang Zhenning, but when will it invite back the true spirit of science?

Not only Tsinghua University so, we look at this Professor Liao, so Minke behavior, even by virtue of donating money to stir up Tsinghua, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, three famous schools ...... masters can not be no money, however, in order to money to give up the basic academic norms, it seems to be the cart before the horse.

The results of scientific research are closely related to the national character, and it is difficult not to be successful when you have the national character of Japan. Not to mention the far away, close to such as soccer, Nobel Prize and many other things, which were once considered to be the characteristics of Europe and the United States, Japan broke through one by one. Can be said to be the Japanese sage Fukuda Yoshitomo has long been set off Asia into Europe as part of the plan, as Mr. Lu Xun said long ago, the need to transform the national character, but also!

1. Work effort.

2. A clear academic atmosphere with a positive ethos and a strong sense of honor.

3. The country has invested heavily in a well-developed scientific research system.

4. The Japanese academic community is confident that it can judge frontiers and originality on its own and will not be blindly led astray by the West.

5. The technical and academic community is clear and does what it needs to do, from start to finish.

The original frontier science will always be interest-driven, can be capital-driven will never be very frontier, at most a market frontier. The state should tighten the threshold of access to scientific research, correct the bones of scientific researchers, fully believe and support the threshold of the people, to enhance their self-confidence, if the academic every day in order to fund the waist, do not expect them to have how much energy to do their jobs, people's energy is extremely limited, every day in order to fund the run, and ultimately can only be a passion for grinding into the mixed mouth to eat. Technical research should be decentralized to state-owned enterprises and private enterprises and other applications of the first line, the first line to combine the practical, otherwise the academic side of the technology, one side is the sky and the stars, but also down-to-earth, bullshit.
