Recently, the New Era Civilization Practice Institute of Tangxi Town, Yinzhou District, Ningbo City, and the Civilization Charity Social Innovation Space of Jiangshan Town ushered in a special team of "science teachers" - Ningbo City Vocational and Technical College's "Meet Scientists" College Student Scientist Spirit Preaching Volunteer Service Team, which is the fourth year that they have been committed to preaching the spirit of Ningbo scientists. This volunteer service team composed of 30 college students, with full enthusiasm and reverence for science, went into communities, villages, primary and secondary schools, and brought a unique feast of scientist spirit to primary and secondary school students.

Primary and secondary school students listened attentively, as if they had traveled through time and space, witnessing the glorious moment when Tu Youyou finally discovered artemisinin in countless experiments, bringing new hope to the global fight against malaria; It is as if you have witnessed Tong Dizhou's extraordinary wisdom and unremitting struggle to successfully achieve the feat of crucian carp cell nuclear transplantation and open up a new world in the field of biology in China and even the world. It seems that he has personally participated in the glorious journey of Lu Yongxiang and Pei Shizhang's continuous exploration on the road of scientific research, leading Chinese science to a new height, and making great contributions to the country's scientific and technological progress.

"We hope that through such activities, we can plant the seeds of science in the hearts of children, so that they can understand that behind every great achievement there are countless attempts and failures, but it is the spirit of perseverance that leads us forward. I want them to understand the profound scientific and cultural heritage of Ningbo and be proud of their hometown! Wu Dongqing, the student leader of the volunteer service team, said passionately.
