In order to thoroughly implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important exposition on science popularization work and fully implement the newly revised "Science and Technology Popularization Law of the People's Republic of China", on October 10, the kick-off meeting for the science popularization activities of the 15th Annual Conference of China Stem Cells was held at the Chongqing Science Hall. Researcher Zhou Qi, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and President of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences ； Professor Bian Xiuwu, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, President of the Stem Cell Biology Branch of the Chinese Society of Cell Biology, and Honorary Chairman of the Chongqing Association for Science and Technology ； Li Leiting, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Vice Chairman of Chongqing Association for Science and Technology ； Guo Jun, Secretary General of Chongqing Association for Science and Technology ； Li Tianan, Secretary of the Party Committee of Jinfeng Laboratory, attended the event. The event was hosted by Researcher Hao Jie, Director of the National Stem Cell Resource Bank. The Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and young student representatives participated in the event.

At the kick-off meeting, Professor Bian Xiuwu said in his speech that this annual meeting held independent science popularization activities for the first time, which further enriched the connotation of the annual meeting and promoted stem cell knowledge to enter the public eye and integrate into daily life.； At the same time, I would like to send a message to young people to have scientific dreams from an early age, maintain curiosity, be brave in discovery, be diligent in thinking, and move forward firmly on the road of exploring the unknown. Secretary Li Leiting pointed out in his speech that taking science popularization activities as one of the important contents of this annual conference will effectively promote the transformation of top expert resources into high-quality science popularization forces, and the transformation of cutting-edge scientific research results into scientific nutrients needed by the public. It will explore new paths and new models for academic conferences to serve economic and social development and empower the improvement of the scientific quality of the people.

Researcher Zhou Qi and Professor Bian Xiuwu jointly presented popular science works "The Seed of Life" and "Human Cell Science Encyclopedia" to student representatives.

The virtual image of the Stem Cell Annual Conference "Various Little Meng" made its debut, and a series of science popularization activities at this annual conference were officially launched.

From October 10th to 12th, a series of diverse and content-rich science popularization activities will be held during the annual meeting, including the "Science and China - Thousands of Academicians and Thousands of Science Popularization" Chongqing Tour, a stem cell-themed science popularization exhibition, a ten-year achievement exhibition of China's stem cells, and a "Chinese Stem Cell People" style exhibition, to bring stem cell knowledge into the public eye and integrate into daily life, promote public understanding, support and participation in scientific and technological innovation, and create a good atmosphere of loving science and advocating innovation in the whole society.

Themed science exhibition: immersive experience, exploring the mysteries of life sciences

The science popularization exhibition of the 15th Annual China Stem Cell Conference, launched on site, is located on the second floor of the Science Hall, with an exhibition area of over 1,000 square meters. It has sections such as "Gateway to Cognition", "Road of Discovery", "Work Display" and "Window to the Future", and uses pictures, texts, videos, books and other forms to create a path from knowledge to knowledge. The Science Gallery of Knowing the Future systematically displays the basic concepts, exploration process and application prospects of stem cells, and displays excellent popular science books on stem cells and related life sciences published in China in the past ten years, providing the public with a fantastic journey to understand stem cell science and explore the source code of life.

Thematic Achievements Exhibition: Pay tribute to ingenuity and inherit the spirit of scientists

During the annual meeting, the China Stem Cell Ten Years Achievements Exhibition and the "Chinese Stem Cell People" Exhibition were simultaneously held at the Chongqing Science Hall. The two major thematic exhibitions systematically review the transition process of my country's stem cell research from tracking to partially leading. With detailed information and touching stories, they pay tribute to the scientific researchers and clinical experts who have made outstanding contributions to the development of my country's stem cell industry. They showcase the outstanding achievements of Chinese scientists in the field of stem cell research and vividly interpret the spirit of scientists with "patriotism, innovation, truth-seeking, dedication, collaboration, and education" as the core.

Grassroots row of academicians and experts: precise empowerment, sowing scientific seeds

As an important part of the science popularization activities of the annual meeting, the "Science and China - Thousands of Academicians·Thousands of Science Popularization" Chongqing trip also officially kicked off. Combining academic events and public needs, Ji Weizhi, Li Jinsong, Gu Ning, Shi Yufang, Yang Yongguang, Zeng Fanyi, Li Wei, Wang Jichang, Hao Academicians and experts from the Czech Republic and other related fields have visited government agencies, universities, primary and secondary schools, scientific research institutes, and enterprises across Chongqing to carry out special science popularization activities. The offline audience is expected to exceed 5,000 people. The activities have established a platform for scientists and the public to communicate and promote the popularization of high-end scientific research resources.

The science popularization activities of this annual meeting have further enriched the connotation of the annual meeting, cultivated fertile ground for innovation, vigorously promoted science and the spirit of scientists, widely disseminated scientific ideas and scientific methods, improved the scientific and cultural literacy of the whole people, and contributed positively to the acceleration of Chongqing's construction into a scientific and technological innovation center with national influence through high-quality science popularization.
