Breaking Barriers: China’s Drive for Pharmaceutical Sciences Research and Independence in the Face of Western Restrictions

Professor Gu Zhen and their team of student researchers at the Zhejiang University College of Pharmaceutical Sciences in Zhejiang, China are pushing boundaries and innovating in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. The desire for independence from the West has led to increased efforts in research and development within China, as emphasized by CCP leaders for years.

President Xi Jinping’s strong desire for independence from the West was further highlighted when President Trump imposed restrictions on Huawei, a telecoms giant, purchasing U.S. tech in 2019. This move confirmed the long-standing anxieties among Chinese Communist Party leaders about being too reliant on American and Western high-tech imports.

Despite challenges and restrictions imposed by Western powers, Professor Gu Zhen and their team remain focused on advancing technology and innovation within China. Their dedication and hard work are evident in the groundbreaking research being conducted at the college. The drive for independence from the West continues to fuel their passion and drive to make significant contributions to the field. The research being conducted at Zhejiang University College of Pharmaceutical Sciences is paving the way for a future where China can stand on its own in the realm of high-tech innovation.
