Recently, the China Medical Engineering Discipline Development Conference was held in Beijing, academicians and experts gathered together, leading enterprises and industry regulators to seek a good recipe for development, marking that the mainland medical engineering discipline adheres to the "four aspects" requirements, closely follows the needs of the people of the country, and opens a new chapter towards innovation-driven development.

The first China Medical Engineering Discipline Development Conference is sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, and hosted by the Institute of Biomedical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, with the theme of "Cross-integration of Medical Engineering and Promoting the Development of Disciplines", the conference condenses the consensus of medical engineering industry, learning, research and medicine, gathers wisdom and wisdom for the development of the medical engineering field in the mainland, provides suggestions and suggestions, discusses the development plan of the discipline, and helps the high-quality development of health and medical education.

He Wei, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and executive vice chairman of the Central Committee of the Peasants' and Workers' Party, stressed that medical engineering, as an emerging discipline that deeply integrates cutting-edge fields such as medicine, engineering and information technology, is committed to providing high-level prevention, diagnosis, monitoring, treatment and rehabilitation related technologies and solutions for medical health and public services, is a powerful driving force for the development of modern medicine, and has become an important foundation and technical pillar for the development of medical and health care. The problem is of practical significance, and its highly growth, relevance and driving strategic position have been widely valued by all countries in the world.

Academician Wang Chen, Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, President of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and President of Peking Union Medical College, delivered an opening speech, systematically reviewing the historical context of the development of medical engineering disciplines in the mainland, focusing on the general trend of all parties in the medical and health industry, emphasizing the multi-angle entry opportunity of medical engineering in the aspects of "promoting, preventing, diagnosing, controlling, curing, and kang" and other aspects of life and health, and calling on all parties to work together to build a discipline development platform for co-construction, consultation and sharing. The Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College attach great importance to the construction of medical engineering disciplines, and in the early days of the founding of New China, it painstakingly carried out the localization of medical devices and walked in the forefront of the country. President Huang Jiasi personally founded the Chinese Society of Biomedical Engineering and presided over the formulation of the National Biomedical Engineering Science and Technology Plan, which opened the layout for the development of the discipline. Academician Wang Chen pointed out that as an institution with a long academic tradition in medical engineering, the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences should take the position of the national team and take on a stronger mission to seek a new chapter for the construction and development of medical engineering disciplines.

Luo Qingming, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, president of Hainan University, member of the Faculty of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and director of the Biomedical Engineering Professional Guidance Committee of the Ministry of Education, pointed out that the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, as the leader, national team and vanguard of medical research in the mainland, adheres to the goal of building the core base of the national medical science and technology innovation system, takes the major needs of the country as the guide, protects the people's health, and bravely takes the heavy responsibility of the development of medical engineering. Medical engineering as the basis for the development of medical diagnosis and treatment technology, related to the health and well-being of all mankind, from the principle, foundation, application, to products, services, supervision of the whole chain of the whole body, the need for the world's researchers to work together to innovate, hope to take the first conference as a new starting point, to attract clinical and university research institutes of scientific and technological workers, science and technology and industry management departments and business representatives in-depth exchanges, expand ideas, and jointly promote the sustainable development of medical engineering disciplines in the mainland.

Zhao Junning, member of the party group and deputy director of the State Drug Administration, pointed out that the State Food and Drug Administration actively encouraged the innovative development of medical devices and launched the Scientific Action Plan for Drug Supervision in China, laying the foundation for strengthening the innovative capacity building of high-end medical devices, accelerating the transformation and upgrading of medical devices, and achieving the goal of fully integrating medical device quality standards with international standards by 2030. The construction of a healthy China is inseparable from the cohesion of all parties, and hopes to take the opportunity of this conference to build a more scientific, efficient and authoritative medical device supervision system with the joint efforts of experts and scholars, industry enterprises, regulatory departments and all sectors of society, participate in the relevant work of medical device regulatory international organizations with a more active attitude, promote the high-quality development of the mainland medical device industry as a whole with high-quality medical device supervision, and accelerate the leap from self-built power to self-built power.

Liu Dengfeng, supervisor of the Department of Science and Technology Education of the National Health Commission, said that the National Health Commission attaches great importance to the innovation of health science and technology and relies on scientific and technological innovation to promote the development of health and health. Medical engineering is an important force supporting the development of health, and the development of clinical medicine promotes each other, and is the fundamental driving force for modern medicine to achieve outstanding achievements. At present, the mainland medical science and technology has ushered in an unprecedented development opportunity, and the people's medical and health service needs are diversified, but the core technology and equipment will still face the international game for a long time. He stressed that all participants should focus on the major needs of the country, grasp the development positioning of medical engineering disciplines, pay attention to platform and talent construction, continue to innovate and develop, and have the courage to strive for first-class.
