The world has entered the era of big science, and major scientific and technological infrastructure can provide the ultimate and comprehensive research means necessary for mankind to engage in cutting-edge research, and is an important platform to support strategic, basic and forward-looking basic scientific research.
On October 30, the infrastructure project of the cross-research platform of Hangzhou extremely weak magnetic large facilities started, marking a substantial step forward in the construction of this large scientific device. On May 24 this year, its feasibility study report was approved by the state and officially landed in Hangzhou High-tech Zone (Binjiang), Zhejiang. Taking the landing of large facilities as an opportunity, Hangzhou also planned to build the International Zero Magnetic Science Valley Hangzhou Jiangnan Science City.

The extremely weak magnetic field facility, that is, the ultra-high sensitivity extremely weak magnetic field and inertial measurement device, is made of:Beijing University of Aeronautics and AstronauticsLeading the construction of major national scientific and technological infrastructure. Similarly, there are the China Sky Eye FAST telescope, the hard X-ray free electron laser device, and the high-energy synchrotron radiation light source.
According to Xinhua News Agency, as of October 2022, China has laid out 77 major scientific and technological infrastructures. They are hidden in mountains and valleys, or hidden in the underground of noisy cities, or wandering in paradise, realizing important national scientific and technological goals, leading the progress of world science, and are the "important weapons of the country" to demonstrate the country's scientific and technological strength. Among them, many universities take the lead or participate in the construction, which can be called the leader of major national science and technology projects.

University of Science and Technology, blooming glory
In this list, the figure of the university of science and technology appears repeatedly. For example,University of Science and Technology of ChinaHe has led or participated in the construction of at least 8 major national scientific and technological infrastructures, and is a veritable model scientific research workerHuazhong University of Science and TechnologywithShanghaiTech UniversityIt also performs well, with at least 2 major national science and technology infrastructure projects.
On October 18 this year, the national major scientific and technological infrastructure project "Precision Gravity Measurement Research Facility", led by Huazhong University of Science and Technology, passed the national acceptance review. This is also the second national major science project undertaken by the school.
Precision gravity measurement is one of the 16 major scientific and technological infrastructure construction projects supported by the state during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, located at the foot of Yujia Mountain on the main campus of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The project consists of two parts: the Precision Gravimetry Research Facility Building and the Cave Laboratory.

The Gravitational Center of the School of Physics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, as the main body of the project, has made important progress. Gravitational constant G measurement achieves the highest international accuracyThe research results were published in a long article in Nature and selected as one of the "Top Ten Advances in Chinese Science" in 2018.
In addition, the university also has a "magnet" that can attract scientific research elites from all over the world - the pulsed strong magnetic field experimental device. The project was approved by the state in 2007 and completed in 2013. This is also the first major national science and technology infrastructure project undertaken by a university affiliated to the Ministry of Education.
Today, this large scientific installation has also been upgraded. As a comprehensive cross-platform with good results in early construction and high cost performance, the pulsed strong magnetic field optimization and upgrading facility was successfully selected into the "14th Five-Year Plan" national major scientific and technological infrastructure construction plan, with a total investment of about 2.1 billion yuan. The project will be builtThe world's largest pulsed strong magnetic field facility with leading performance parametersIt provides open extreme experimental conditions for carrying out cutting-edge basic research in physics, materials, chemistry, biomedicine and other multidisciplinary fields, and continues to produce research results with major original innovations and meeting major national needs.
Four colleges and universities to create a better future
This year, there is also a large scientific device that has passed the national acceptance, and the construction task has been completed with high quality. On July 27, entrusted by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Education was inShanghai Jiao Tong UniversityRuijin Hospital affiliated to the School of Medicine organized and held the acceptance meeting of the National Major Science and Technology Infrastructure (Shanghai) Project of Translational Medicine, which officially passed the national comprehensive acceptance.
The National Major Science and Technology Infrastructure (Shanghai) Project for Translational Medicine was officially approved by the National Development and Reform Commission in July 2013, started construction in September 2016, and was officially put into operation in December 2020It is the first national large-scale scientific facility in the field of biomedicine in China
The project has built a systematic and integrated national experimental platform integrating sample storage, bioinformatics mining, analysis, integration, drug research and development, and clinical research, providing a comprehensive and multi-angle approach for translational medicine research.

The research ward is the core facility of translational medicine. The Translational Medicine Facility has 300 clinical research beds, including 50 100-level laminar flow research wards. It is designed and configured in accordance with international first-class standards to carry out large-scale, prospective and standardized phase 0-IV clinical trials, and promote the clinical practice of innovative technologies, technologies and diagnostic reagents. All beds form a multi-functional smart clinical research cluster through intelligent equipment and information technology, and each bed unit has the functions of automatic perception and independent collection of clinical research data. The first commercial CAR-T cell** in China was completed in the ward of the transformation facility, which gave lymphoma patients a new lease of life.
Shanghai is not the only major national scientific and technological infrastructure for translational medicine. In accordance with the principle of combining comprehensive and professional, the Chinese family is in Shanghai (Shanghai Jiao Tong University), Chengdu, Sichuan (Sichuan UniversityWest China Hospital), Beijing (Beijing, General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army), Xi'an, Shaanxi (Air Force Medical UniversityLayout and construction of translational medicine research facilities, and form a translational medicine research support network covering major regions of the country.

As the general secretary said, "self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology are the foundation of a strong country and the key to security", and it is necessary to "firmly grasp the lifeblood of science and technology in our own hands". In order to meet the challenges of international scientific and technological competition, there is an urgent need to further tap the potential of institutional basic research based on major scientific and technological infrastructure.
On the new path of development, more and more universities have participated in the construction of large scientific facilities, produced a large number of major scientific achievements with international influence, and made China's voice in the world's scientific frontier field louder and louder!
