The State Council announced the revised "National Science and Technology Awards Ordinance" from December 1. The "Regulations" is implemented by the "Recommended" to adjust the reform requirements of "Nomination System"; strengthen the construction of the scientific and technological reward, and clarify the academic level and good scientific morality in science and technology activities. Individuals who have violated ethics or unreasonable scientific research may not be nominated or granted to the National Science and Technology Award, establish a database of scientific and integrity and serious confidential behavior databases, prohibiting the use of national science and technology awards.

Watch 1: "Recommended" change "Nomination", the program is more transparent

A highlight of the new version of the regulations is to implement the technological rewards from the "recommended system" adjustment to the reform requirements of "Nomination System". The latter is also an international practice.

For a long time, my country's science and technology rewards have been taken: the administrative department issued a recommended quantity indicator, and all units organized a scientific and technological personnel application report, and the unit was screened and recommended to the National Science and Technology Award Office. The science and technology community has always had different voices, and believes that the administrative "offside" has led to the shortcomings of some recommended awards.

Since the central government to deepen the reform leading group 2017 reviewed the "Program on Deepening Science and Technology Award System", the following year, the national science and technology rewards will change "the active self-recommended" is "passive him". The regulations are revised to raise this reform measures to the regulatory level.

The Ministry of Science and Technology introduced the relevant person in charge, the reform report, implemented the system, the system, the organization, organization, relevant departments, etc., to give full play to the academic, scholar role, and strengthen the rewards in the basis of adhering to the government's leading.

At the same time, strengthen nomination responsibilities, nominees should be nominated in strict accordance with the nomination method, provide nomination materials, responsible for the authenticity and accuracy of materials, and assume the corresponding responsibility in accordance with the regulations.

As a procedural guarantee, the new version of the regulations also make rigid requirements for the transparency of the review process. Clearing the judging activities to persist in public, fair, just principles, review methods, total number of rewards, and reward results, etc. should be announced to the public.

Watch 2: Building "Integrity Profile", increase the supervision of the supervision

Individual researchers, institutions have violations of ethics or unveiled behaviors. After several years, after several years, after several years, there is a list of science and technology rewards - this situation has been questioned by public opinion.

The new version of the regulations pay attention to the construction of technology rewards, requiring the National Science and Technology Award to nominate the above individual or organized "one vote", and establish a research on nomination experts, scholars, organizations and review members, review experts, candidates. Integrity severe confidence behavior database.

The Regulations also increase the supervision of science and technology rewards. On the one hand, the Supervision Committee supervises the whole process of nominating, review and objection processing in accordance with relevant methods, and reports supervision to the National Science and Technology Awards Committee.

On the one hand, the corresponding legal responsibility is specified for the subjects of the reward activities. Violation of the regulations, individuals, organizations with scientific research integrity and serious confidence, will be recorded in scientific research and integrity, and implement joint disciplines in accordance with relevant state regulations.

Li Zhimin, formerly director of the Ministry of Education Science and Technology Development Center for the Study of Science and Technology Awards System, said that the "one vote veto" in the scientific research, "zero tolerance" for the running award, continued to be respotes for illegal personnel, such supervision discipline Let the national science and technology reward more fair and more authoritative, and further intend to create a ventilated academic environment for researchers, guide them to focus on research and play potential.

Watching some 3: Strengthening the honor, returning to the reward "initial heart"

In a period of time, the national science and technology reward and discipline assessment, talent evaluation, degree settings and even academicians are selected, resulting in some researchers to become a bonus.

"This is a lot of reward spillage effects in the scientific community. The honor has become utilitarian, deviates from the original purpose of technology rewards." Li Zimin said that the national science and technology reward system reform is further deepening, will better solve the efficiency of scientific research Fair balance problem.

The new version of the regulations clearly stipulates that the use of the national science and technology award name is not just right.

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology said that the honor of strengthening the scientific and technological awards, grants the National Science and Technology Award to the Truth, Subject to Studies, Directors, Society, Dare to Beyond, and Qi Pan Peak.

Tan Huolin, deputy director of the Personnel Department of the China Association, said that the Chinese Academic Association as an academic community organization, and has long participated in the nomination recommendations and review evaluation of national science and technology awards for a long time. In the future, according to the requirements of the new regulations, the academic community is fulfilled, and the scientific and technological awards return to the honor itself.

It is reported that after the new "National Science and Technology Award Ordinance", a series of supporting documents such as implementation rules will also be introduced, and the next step will also standardize all kinds of scientific and technological awards, reduce the number of rewards, and improve the quality of reward.
