The goal is to cultivate interdisciplinary talents who meet the demands of emerging productive forces. Looking ahead, the Party Committee will continue to promote the spirit of educators, uphold teacher ethics and conduct as the top priority, provide strong support for the growth of young teachers, and make greater contributions to the high-quality development of academic disciplines and the advancement of Peking University Medicine.
