mentions Yan Ning , I believe everyone is familiar with it. As one of the well-known female scientists in China, Yan Ning's scientific research and academic achievements have been admired by many experts and scholars.
From childhood to adulthood, Yan Ning has been "other people's children", with excellent academic performance and is often among the best in the grade.
It was precisely because of her outstanding academic performance that she successfully admitted to Tsinghua University and chose the most popular department of biological science and technology at that time.
The excellence in middle school did not make Yan Ning lose herself, but instead made her more sober. In this Tsinghua University where academic masters gather, if you want to stand out, you have to put in more effort.
So even during college, Yan Ning did not slacken at all, but insisted on doing his best and continued to work hard. In the end, she also made her look particularly outstanding in Tsinghua University where academic masters gather.
2000, Yan Ning graduated from undergraduate studies. As we all know, even undergraduate graduates from an ordinary university were very popular at that time, let alone graduates from Tsinghua University.
So when Yan Ning graduated from undergraduate studies, he actually faced many choices. For example, the company's high-paying recruitment was not the case, but in the face of temptation, Yan Ning chose to refuse. Instead, another decision was made, which was to study abroad at the world's prestigious university, Princeton University, and study for a doctorate.
At that time, her doctoral supervisor was Shi Yigong . However, at that time, Shi Yigong was still teaching at Princeton University and was not an academician.
I have to say that her experience in studying for a doctorate in Princeton and later engaged in postdoctoral research has been very helpful to Yan Ning, and she has gone from a "novice" in a laboratory who knows nothing to an academic figure who can independently complete relevant experiments and publish high-level papers.
It was this precious experience that allowed her to leave the postdoctoral department and directly serve as a professor and doctoral supervisor at Tsinghua University. She also set a record that she became the youngest professor at Tsinghua at that time.
From 2007 to 2017, Yan Ning worked at Tsinghua University for 10 years. During these 10 years, she not only trained many outstanding students, but also published many high-level academic papers.
Whether it is "Science", "Nature" or "Cell", Yan Ning's name can be seen in these three top journals in the world, and this is also a proof of her outstanding scientific research and academic ability.
2017 is a major turning point for Yan Ning. Because two things happened this year.
The first thing Yan Ning nominated Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but was eventually defeated. The second thing is that Yan Ning resigned from her relevant position at Tsinghua University, and then went to Princeton University, which is also one of her alma maters, to teach, and is a tenured professor.
You should know that this is a position with a high status, which shows Princeton University’s recognition and respect for Yan Ning.
What is more interesting is that Yan Ning, who was not rated as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in China, was rated as an foreign academician of the National Academy of Sciences after teaching at Princeton University for 2 years. Then, two years later, he was rated as an an academician of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
All these indirectly show that Yan Ning’s scientific research and academic ability is undoubtedly, and she is worthy of the title of academician.
Before, every time I talked about Yan Ning, everyone felt very sorry. Although everyone knows that she is a rare talent, she works abroad and is cultivating talents for the United States. So everyone has always hoped that she can return to China to develop.
Finally, under everyone's expectations, Yan Ning finally decided to come back.
At the 2022 Shenzhen Global Innovation Talent Forum, Yan Ning publicly stated that he has submitted a resignation application to Princeton University, and has also properly placed other members of the laboratory. After resigning, he will serve as the founding president of the Shenzhen Academy of Medical Sciences.
The first time he returned to China to work, Yan Ning was a professor and doctoral supervisor at Tsinghua University. Now that he has returned to China for the second time, Yan Ning will directly become the head of a new university.
Yan Ning has improved a lot in recent years, whether it is scientific research and academic ability, team management ability, or talent training ability, the comprehensive quality improvement in various aspects gives everyone reason to believe that she can run a good university and lead a good team in the future. We also hope that under Yan Ning's leadership, the Shenzhen Academy of Medical Sciences will become a shining star and shine brightly on the land of the motherland.
