China’s first Nobel Prize winner in physiology or medicine, Tu Youyou, celebrated her 86 th birthday by signing an official agreement to donate 1 million yuan to establish the Peking University Tu Youyou Talent Award Foundation.
The initiative will provide financial support and incentives to the university’s students and young teachers of medicine.
A vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and a vice-minister of education witnessed the signing at Tu’s residence on December 25th, 2016, a few days before her birthday on December 30th.
"I’ve gotten to where I am now thanks to the university’s medicine programme," Tu says. "I hope the younger generation can achieve even more. "
Young researchers enjoy a favourable environment compared with the past, as the country is now very supportive of science and innovation, she says.
Tu is best-known for discovering the use of artemisinin(青蒿素)and dihydroartemisinin(双氢青蒿素)to treat malaria(疟疾). She shared the Nobel Prize in 2015 with Irishman William Campbell and Japanese Satoshi Omura for developing therapies against malaria and infections caused by roundworm parasites. That made her the first Chinese Nobel winner in physiology or medicine, and the first Nobel winner whose education and research was completed exclusively in China.
Tu enrolled in Peking University’s medicine school(now the Peking University Health Science Centre)in 1951. After graduation, she continued her studies and research of fusing traditional Chinese and modern Western medicines at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, where she still works. She won the top medical-science prize, the Lasker Award, in 2011. She was the first Chinese to claim the honour.
Her foundation will award 5, 000 yuan per student and 25, 000 yuan per teacher. The foundation’s annual earnings will determine the number of recipients each year. The PKU Health Science Centre, founded in 1912, ranks among China’s most prestigious medical schools. It has earned international prominence for its researchers’ achievements. And some of the research has been published in the journal Science.
