Yan Ning, the Chinese biologist, once was one of the youngest professors at Tsinghua University. She has won many awards for her studies at home and abroad. Now, at the end of her speech “There and Back Again”, the 45-year-old made her decision to return to China.
She said she would leave Princeton University in the US for Shenzhen, Guangdong. She’s going to help set up the Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research&Translation, short for SMART. It has several functions including scientific research, student cultivation and financial support set to be finished in 2025. It aims to be a worldwide famous medical research academy by 2050. Its director will be chosen worldwide.
Yan wanted to help and support more outstanding scholars and deal with health problems that humans are facing. For her, Shenzhen is an energetic place where anything is possible. “Shenzhen is the city of dreams and I want to realize my next dream here,” Yan said in the speech.
Yan’s return can be seen as a case of China trying to develop the careers of talented people.
For example, the country gives good chances which have made many overseas students and talents come back to China. According to the ministry of education, from 1978 to the end of 2022, 4.32 million Chinese students finished their studies abroad and 80.46% returned to China for further development.
At the same time, China has also taken action to attract global talents at the beginning of this year. The Ministry of Science and Technology rolled out a policy to encourage companies to bring in high-level foreign experts.
