Artemisinin — A Gift from Traditional Chinese Medicine to the World

چکیده
It is my great honor to give this lecture today at Karolinska Institute. The title of my presentation is: Artemisinin—A Gift from Traditional Chinese Medicine to the World. I would like to thank the Nobel Assembly and the Nobel Foundation for awarding me the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. This is not only an honor for myself, but also a recognition and motivation for all scientists in China. I would also like to express my sincere appreciation for the great hospitality of the Swedish people which I have received during my short stay over the last few days. Thanks to Dr. William C. Campbell and Dr. Satoshi Omura for their excellent and inspiring presentations. The story I will tell today is about the diligence and dedication of Chinese scientists during the search for antimalarial drugs from traditional Chinese medicine forty years ago under considerably underresourced research conditions.
