University of East Medicine, hand in hand with the "North"

01

Situated at No. 4 Xinghuo Road, a group of 11 high-rise buildings is particularly eye-catching. This is the location of the National University Biomedical Regional Technology Transfer and Conversion Center (Nanjing, Jiangsu), where theBuildings 4, 5, 6 and 7 are also the important research office carriers for the teachers and students of Southeast University and China Pharmaceutical University who have moved into the new district.The

Walking into the building, the interior is spacious and bright, and the core functional areas such as the central laboratory, cell room and experimental animal room are well laid out, providing a high-standard research environment for teachers and students.

"At present, the majority of East's faculty and students have opened teaching and research here." Medicine Valley related staff said. It is understood that Southeast University's School of Medicine, School of Public Health, School of Life Sciences and Technology, Organ Chip Research Institute and otherSeven secondary medical-related units have been fully stationed in the new district, and more than 1,500 students and faculty will be rooted here to study and work.The

China Pharmaceutical University, on the other hand, brought four new types of colleges, namely, the College of Biomedical Excellence Engineers, the College of Modern Pharmaceutical Industry, the College of Biopharmaceuticals and the Institute of Intelligent Pharmaceutical Intersection.The first students will enter the Engineer Technology Center in October.. At the same time, the school also has nearly 30 research results of the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences will be located in the new district.

With a group of colleges moving in and a group of students and faculty coming, what will Eastern University and the University of Pharmacy do next in the new district?

In the answers given by the heads of the two colleges and universities concerned, theA New Paradigm of Running Schools with Deep Integration of "Learning, Research, Production and Utilization"was written on the first line of the answer.

"We have positioned the Jiangbei Innovation Center as an important carrier of 'organized scientific research results transformation and organized talent cultivation' at the 'industrialized and applied end of China Pharmaceutical University's innovative drugs'." Yang Yong, Standing Committee of the Party Committee and Vice President of China Pharmaceutical University, introduced.

He said that the school's talent training in the past mainly relied on the campus platform, easy to "disconnect" from the industry. As the main carrier of the life and health industry in the new area, the Biomedical Valley has gathered more than 1,300 upstream and downstream enterprises, which is exactly the soil that the University of Pharmaceutical Sciences needs the most - to be able to integrate with the industry. In the future, the school will work together with enterprises to explore the joint training mode, with the enterprise's technology research, product development as the students' research topics."Getting students to study real problems, real research problems."Yang Yong said.

It's not just about talent development.Transformation of research results is also the focus of attention of the two universitiesThe

"Our medical school already has nucleic acid drug-related teams working in the new district." Yao Honghong, secretary of the Party committee and dean of the medical school of Southeast University, introduced that in the past, the achievements of the teachers of the college were mainly transformed with the help of the university's scientific research achievement transformation center. "The stage of the new district will be broader, and teachers can dock more conveniently, transform more quickly, and explore new modes of company registration and R&D operation at a later stage." She said.

Integrate talent training into industrial development and build laboratories in the industrial chain. When the innovation chain, industrial chain and talent chain between the new area and the university are deeply integrated, the stationing of two universities is not only an extension of physical space, but also an innovation of development mode.

The presence of the two universities in the new district has also led to more innovative collisions.

For example, Dongda University, Pharmaceutical University not only in the new area has become a physical sense of the "neighbors", but also become hand in hand with friends - Southeast University of Medicine and Life Sciences Jiangbei Innovation and Transformation Center and China Pharmaceutical University Jiangbei Innovation Center signed a contract, the two sides will further build a bridge of cooperation to jointly promote the development of the biomedical industry. The two sides will further build a bridge of cooperation and jointly promote the development of the biomedical industry.

"All along, Yudu has been focusing on cutting-edge biotechnology areas, including gene and cell therapy, antibody drugs and so on." Yang Yong said that in the future, they plan to develop a new portfolio of medicines and devices with Dongda, which is strong in engineering, and explore new paths for artificial intelligence technology in biomedical research and development.

As another example, the Nanjing Biomedical Subcenter has appointed the12 experts and scholars from Dongda University and Pharmaceutical University as expert advisors; two colleges and universities have also appointed13 New District Entrepreneurs as Industry Innovation Transformation Advisors and Industry-based Adjunct ProfessorsThe 13 entrepreneurs. These 13 entrepreneurs, there are South Micro-medicine Director, President Leng Delong, there are Vickers Pharmaceuticals Innovative Drugs R & D Center Deputy General Manager Wu Yong ...... They are mostly from the "University of East Department" "Department of Pharmaceutical University "Alumni enterprises, research areas and the school's advantageous disciplines are similar. This kind of "mutual recruitment of talents" is also a new direction to open up the deep integration of "research, production and utilization".

Sparks collide and complement each other's strengths.In addition to school-local cooperation, there is also school-university and school-enterprise cooperation.This kind of "strong cooperation" brings more efficient transformation, closer cooperation and more projects. Such a "strong alliance" brings more efficient transformation, closer cooperation and more projects, and regional industrial development is thus injected with a steady flow of innovative power.

It is worth mentioning that, in the Southeast University, China Pharmaceutical University is not far away, Nanjing University of chemical and biological medicine discipline group is also ready to go. Longwang Mountain, life and health industry, "the strongest array" further set, but also open a broader industrial framework. This open hub will promote more cutting-edge basic research toward application, more industrial talents emerge, and more new possibilities to look forward to.
