Zhang Xuefeng, who has always been known for his courage to speak out, once again expressed his opinion: Who said that engaging in scientific research is not profitable?
This time, Zhang Xuefeng ushered in a different guest, Feng Yi, a doctor of astrophysics from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences and a researcher at Zhijiang Laboratory, for on-site connection. It is reported that before devoting himself to scientific research, Feng Yi had twice started a business and devoted himself to scientific research, and he was less than 35 years old, and within two years of graduation, he published 6 top journals in a row, including 2 in science and 4 in nature.
Not only that, Researcher Feng Yi has just won the "Green Orange Scholar" and a discretionary research grant of 1 million yuan.
This also caused Zhang Xuefeng to sigh: Who said that scientific research is not profitable?
SincerityHowever, judging from the resume of researcher Feng Yi, he does have many halos:
Researcher Feng Yi is only 34 years old now, and his life can be called "open":
At the age of 18, he won the first prize in the high school physics league and was sent to the Department of Physics of Tsinghua University.
After graduating from the bachelor's degree, he went to overseas famous universities to study for a doctorate, and published in Nature as the first author during his doctoral studies.
During his Ph.D., he also took a short break to win "venture capital" in the field of "mobile games".
After returning to China in 2016, he was only 26 years old after just graduating with a doctorate, joined the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and continued his scientific research, and in March 2023, Feng Yi once again published in the top international journal "Science" as the first author, and then received a bonus of 1 million yuan.
However, looking at the whole country, how many outstanding young researchers are there like Feng Yi?
Most of the young doctors are "Tubo", who work hard for 3-5 years to get a doctorate, and then enter universities or scientific research institutes to work, they are still working hard for a teaching position, and they are also working hard to write for the "National Natural Science **Youth**".
Just using the example of researcher Feng Yi to show that scientific researchers earn a lot of money, is it a partial generalization?
Just like a netizen's message, there are still many people who are really engaged in scientific research, and it is not easy to make money.
It is also necessary to give necessary material rewards to scholars who have made outstanding scientific research achievements, but it is also necessary to see that looking at the whole country, many young scholars do not have sufficient scientific research funds, especially young doctors from ordinary provincial universities, under the guidance of the policy of "either promotion or leaving", they are racking their brains to fight for opportunities for teaching positions!A "national natural youth" of more than 100,000 yuan is the key to whether they can get a teaching position!
It should be seen that the "non-rise or go" mode can indeed "roll" out some ** masters!There are many young professors who have published hundreds of articles at a young age, but the main task of colleges and universities is to teach and educate people, and every doctor can't be allowed to engage in scientific research, right?Especially in provincial colleges and universities with a poor overall scientific research foundation, is it more important to improve the quality of teaching?
Zhang Xuefeng's point of view".Who says scientific research doesn't make money?At the same time, we should also see that we should "reduce the burden" for young teachers, and try not to adopt the model of "either promotion or leaving", so that young teachers can always focus on teaching, and do have scientific research ability, and can calm down to engage in scientific research, and do not completely evaluate the ability of these young teachers with scientific research ability.
