“Humans are born explorers, curious and fascinated by the world around us. It is our nature. We are driven to explore the unknown, discover new worlds, push the boundaries of scientific and technological limits, and then push further,” summarized Zheng Yongchun.

Co-sponsored by the CNIC and the Bureau of Science and Communication at the CAS, the SELF monthly forum aims to discuss the development of science and education with an investigative spirit keen on the pursuit of knowledge. The forum encourages free and independent thought and aims to break boundaries and inspire continued scientific innovation and development into the future.
