Core Insights - The article emphasizes the importance of supporting young scientific and technological talents in innovation and entrepreneurship as a key driver for China's future development [1][2]. Group 1: Talent Development - During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the number of basic research talents in China increased from 472,000 to 575,000, with 180,000 new postdoctoral recruits, marking a 64% growth compared to the "13th Five-Year Plan" [1]. - 43.3% of the leaders of national key R&D projects are under 45 years old, and 80% of the National Natural Science Foundation projects are undertaken by young talents under 45 [1]. - There is a systemic leap in the scale, structure, and status of young scientific and technological talent cultivation, although challenges such as inadequate evaluation systems and resource allocation remain [1]. Group 2: Mechanism and System Innovation - The article suggests breaking structural barriers in training mechanisms and evaluation systems through innovative policies like "ranking by merit" for major research tasks, encouraging young talents to take the lead [1]. - It advocates for establishing dedicated pathways and exploring feasible support schemes for young scientific talents, along with reforming traditional rigid funding management systems [1]. Group 3: Technology Transfer and Capitalization - Establishing a technology information officer system to connect high-value results databases with industrial internet platforms is proposed to facilitate technology transfer [2]. - The creation of a shared concept verification and pilot platform for young talents aims to reduce early project failure risks [2]. - A green channel for listing innovative enterprises on the Sci-Tech Innovation Board is suggested, reducing the listing cycle to six months for qualifying companies [2]. Group 4: Supportive Ecosystem - The article calls for creating a failure-tolerant and innovation-encouraging social atmosphere, promoting a sense of responsibility and mission among young talents [2]. - It encourages local governments to implement targeted policies to support young scientific and technological talents in innovation and entrepreneurship [2]. - A comprehensive service ecosystem from R&D to industrialization is proposed to provide all-around support for young talents' projects and innovations [2].

Core Insights - A team of young scientists, primarily from the "post-90s" generation, has gained attention for their research paper on the DeepSeek-R1 inference model, published in the prestigious journal Nature [1] - Young scientific talent has become a backbone in major national technology projects and emerging fields like artificial intelligence, with 43.3% of project leaders in key national R&D plans during the 14th Five-Year Plan being under 45 years old [1] Group 1 - The current cultivation and utilization of young scientific talent in China face several challenges, including insufficient early career support, lack of growth platforms, and inadequate evaluation mechanisms tailored to their characteristics [2] - Young scientists are considered the most dynamic group for innovation, with optimal invention ages ranging from 25 to 45 years [2] - National laboratories and major technology tasks are crucial for nurturing young innovative talent, necessitating greater trust and support for these individuals to take on significant roles [1][2] Group 2 - Early career support for young scientific talent is primarily competitive project-based, which disadvantages those with fewer early research results [2] - There is a need to create a favorable innovation ecosystem, as nearly 60% of young talents feel burdened by administrative tasks, which detracts from their research focus [2] - Improving the institutional mechanisms that align with the growth patterns of young scientific talent will encourage more individuals to excel in building a strong technological nation [2]
