Why It Matters
Wu Liande is the founder of Binjiang Medical College, the predecessor of Harbin Medical University, and a pioneer in modern medicine and epidemic prevention in China. Harbin Medical University will celebrate its 100th anniversary on September 8.
China News Service, Beijing, September 6. As Harbin Medical University celebrates its 100th anniversary, the China Science and Technology Press recently reprinted the first edition of the book "Discovering Wu Liande—The First Chinese Nobel Prize Candidate" published 16 years ago.
Wu Liande is a pioneer in China's health and epidemic prevention, quarantine and modern Chinese medicine fields, the first Chinese candidate for the Nobel Prize, a medical educator, and the founder of Binjiang Medical College, the predecessor of Harbin Medical University.
In 1926, Wu Liande founded Binjiang Medical College when the country was in turmoil. With the mission of "strengthening the people's health and saving the country from danger", it was the first time for Chinese people to run their own modern medical education in the Northeast. The school was renamed Harbin Medical University in 1938. In 1949, the school merged with the first and second branches of the original Xingshan (now Hegang City) China Medical University to form the new Harbin Medical University.
In 2010, China Science and Technology Press published the book "Discovering Wu Liande - the First Chinese Nobel Prize Candidate" written by Li Lu, recreating the legend of this generation of national scholars and famous doctors. That year coincided with the 50th anniversary of Wu Liande's death and the 100th anniversary of his journey to Northeast China to fight the epidemic.
According to an announcement from Harbin Medical University, the school will celebrate its 100th anniversary on September 8. The school will hold a series of activities such as high-quality development conferences with the theme of "Inheriting the Red Gene and Advancing the Medical Path". It is understood that people from all walks of life at home and abroad, as well as teachers, students and alumni, including the "Wu Lien-Teh Visiting Group" composed of Wu Liande's descendants and scholars from all over the world, will gather in Harbin to celebrate the 100th anniversary of this medical institution of higher learning.
