On December 26, 2024, the 33rd session of the Young Scholars Association (YSA) activity was successfully held in the second-floor Radiobiology Conference Room at the School of Public Health, Jilin University. This exchange activity invited Associate Professor Pang Bo from our School, who is mainly engaged in etiological surveillance of major emerging/infectious diseases, surveillance of chronic non-communicable diseases, and research on new early warning technologies. This exchange was conducted under the framework of the Ministry of Education's Joint Construction Project for High-Level Public Health Schools between Jilin University and Xinjiang Medical University, and was held in a hybrid format (online and offline). More than 30 young faculty members and graduate students from both schools participated.
Associate Professor Pang Bo shared her research under the theme "Research on Rapid On-Site Detection Technologies for Major Infectious Diseases," presenting how her research team addresses various issues in on-site detection of major infectious diseases by combining the advantages of multiple detection methods to enhance the sensitivity and specificity of on-site detection methods, thereby achieving rapid on-site detection. Young scholars from both schools subsequently engaged in lively discussions around Associate Professor Pang Bo's research and expressed anticipation for further collaboration. This activity promoted young scholars' understanding and in-depth discussion of rapid on-site detection technologies for major infectious diseases, and also provided a platform for better future exchanges and cooperation between the two schools.
