Tu Youyou rushed to the hot search, why is she said to be one of the greatest scientists in the 2th century?

There is an old saying in China that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, and artemisinin discovered and studied by Tu Youyou's team has saved more than 1 million people in Qian Qian, so it is no exaggeration to say that she is one of the greatest scientists in the 2th century.

First, from the process of her discovery of artemisinin, we can see that she is a rare talent who is familiar with ancient and modern times. In the 196s, Tu Youyou first found a record about malaria treatment when he was looking through the ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine. With her efforts, the research group determined the research direction of Artemisia annua L., a traditional Chinese medicine, although the experimental results showed that the inhibitory rate of Artemisia annua L. extract on Plasmodium vivax was only 12%-4%. However, she firmly focused on the research direction, from the direction of improving the purity of extraction, and led the team to hand over extraordinary answers in a poor working environment.

Secondly, in the process of studying drugs, she saw the doctor's kindness. Anyone who is the first person to eat crabs at any time is a warrior. However, after hundreds of failures, Tu Youyou's team found artemisinin in the research of malaria prevention and treatment drugs. In order to test the safety of artemisinin, Tu Youyou and other three researchers tried the drug with their own bodies. In ancient times, Shennong tasted a hundred herbs, but now researchers personally try the medicine. It is precisely because of the spirit of sacrifice of Tu Youyou and her team that the drugs made from artemisinin will be put into clinical treatment soon, providing high-quality drugs for malaria treatment all over the world.

Third, judging from Tu Youyou's achievements, she can be regarded as one of the greatest scientists in the 2th century. As a lifelong researcher of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering artemisinin and creating a new method for malaria treatment. Many people in China are getting to know him because of this award. In fact, everyone has already enjoyed the benefits brought by her research results. The drug developed for artemisinin discovered by her has been strongly recommended by the World Health Organization. The first choice for disease treatment has saved the lives of more than 7 million patients with severe malaria in more than 3 countries around the world.

Fourthly, Tu Youyou's research results are of great benefit not only to the past, but also to the present and the future. Because of artemisinin, malaria in China has been well controlled, but there are still some countries where malaria is rampant. Therefore, Tu Youyou's research results have a lasting effect on helping these regions and countries solve malaria. Moreover, Tu Youyou donated 2 million yuan of his Nobel Prize to peking university health science center and the Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine respectively, and established the Tu Youyou Innovation Fund to reward young researchers. And the research results of these researchers will also bring us better medical conditions and achievements.

Great people can not only give full play to their absolute advantages, but also improve the lives of others and lead the future. Tu Youyou has done well in these aspects, so she can be called one of the greatest scientists in the 2th century.
