Popularize health science knowledge: if people can understand, how can they learn science?

"We provide a more humane face for medicine. Science popularization work should be close to people's lives, so that the people can understand science popularization, learn science popularization and apply science popularization. " At the press conference held by the National Health Planning Commission of Changsha City, Hunan Province, Lei Guanghua, Dean of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, introduced his experience in health science popularization on behalf of the hospital.

In addition to traditional models such as popular science, expert free clinic, lectures, publicity and education, hospitals have created many popular science models around medical workers in their daily work practice, created popular science brands, and disseminated health knowledge and ideas through pictures, words, cartoons, videos, movies, sitcoms and other ways. "We also guide primary hospitals to strengthen health science popularization, hoping that through our efforts, ordinary people will not get sick, get sick less and get sick later." .

For people with lofty ideals, Xiangya Hospital has summarized a set of experiences in order to let more people actively participate in health science popularization. Lei Guanghua said, "As a hospital, the first is to publicize, encourage and motivate medical staff to love and devote themselves to popular science. The second is to discover, excavate and cultivate medical personnel with ideals, beliefs and interests, and do a good job in health science popularization. The third is to encourage, guide and push health scientists to do better. For example, setting up awards and honors related to health science popularization will give science popularization experts more opportunities to show their achievements. " .

Sun Peichun, vice president of Henan Provincial People's Hospital, said: "We are not only doctors who treat patients, but also doctors who spread the concept of health to the people and implement the strategy of' healthy China'." This is our responsibility. When scientific research is combined with popular science, "how to distinguish the authenticity of popular science is a problem that needs our managers to pay close attention to." Sun Peichun, vice president of Henan Provincial People's Hospital, said, "Doctors will certainly find a lot of guidance on health issues and knowledge education in the process of scientific research, combine scientific research with science, and encourage our researchers to study popular science knowledge in depth, teach patients and teach people, so as to achieve the effect of health education." .
