"My choice of learning pharmacy was driven by my interests, curiosity, and a desire to seek new medic..." — Tu Youyou

Artemisinin... is a true gift from old Chinese medicine. But this is not the only instance in which the wisdom of Chinese medicine has borne fruit.

Malaria was one of the epidemic diseases with the most comprehensive records in traditional Chinese medical literature.

No doubt, clinical practice in alleviating malaria symptoms utilizing Qinghao - inherited from traditional Chinese medical literature - provided some useful information leading to the discovery of artemisinin.

It is my dream that Chinese medicine will help us conquer life-threatening diseases worldwide and that people across the globe will enjoy its benefits for health promotion.
