Exploring comprehensive research and treatment methods for "upgrading", academician and expert suggestions: interdisciplinary cooperation methods in internal and external sciences | medicine | cooperation
On the 19th and 21st, the Second Oriental Medical Conference, jointly hosted by the Shanghai Medical Association, the Internal Medicine Branch of the Shanghai Medical Association, the Surgery Branch of the Shanghai Medical Association, and the Shanghai Medical Journal, announced that interdisciplinary cooperation between internal and external medicine, strengthening comprehensive research in the medical field, and upgrading treatment methods will be the future trend, which is more beneficial for further improving disease efficacy and benefiting patients.
Wu Jinglei, President of the Shanghai Medical Association, stated that the Surgical Branch of the Shanghai Medical Association was established in 1947, while the Internal Medicine Branch was established in 1950. The two branches have made positive contributions to the medical development of Shanghai and even the whole country. Looking back at history, Shanghai is one of the birthplaces of modern medicine in China, and has always advocated the interdisciplinary development approach of promoting internal medicine and surgery. In recent years, the medical revolution has continued to deepen. With the promotion of informatization, artificial intelligence, and big data, breaking down disciplinary barriers and linking academic exchanges has become a common call in the academic community. The original intention of the Oriental Medical Conference is in line with the principle of "unity over time".
Academician Zhao Yupei, President of the Chinese Medical Association, bluntly stated that in the past few decades, China has been striving for excellence in the research of medical sub specialties. However, specialized doctors often have limited understanding of the progress in other medical fields, and there are limitations in lacking a macro grasp of the development trend of medicine. It must be said that this is a regret. The organic integration of internal and external scientific surgical content with disease organs as the core, focusing on the hot and difficult issues of medical development, should be the trend. The chairman of the conference, Professor Fan Jia, an academician of the CAS Member, and Professor Jia Weiping, an academician of the CAE Member, said that the ultimate goal of interdisciplinary cooperation in strengthening comprehensive research and upgrading treatment methods in the medical field is to improve medical standards and promote human health.

Several academicians expressed their opinions on the forum. Professor Liu Jie, an academician of the CAE Member, said that since the advent of AI, it has received extensive attention from scientists and the public. Artificial intelligence is an important driving force for a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation. It is worth considering and exploring how to apply artificial intelligence to the medical field. Professor Gao Fu, an academician of the CAS Member, said that scientific and technological innovation faces new situations and challenges, and strengthening basic research is an inevitable requirement for scientific and technological self-reliance. The development of the medical field requires independent innovation, using achievements to interpret the original intention of "everything for the patient, everything for the patient".
Professor Fan Jia, an academician of the CAS Member, introduced that China has made great progress in the diagnosis, treatment and research of liver cancer in recent years. Molecular subtyping, intervention strategies, and minimally invasive surgical technology innovation have effectively improved the efficacy of liver cancer. Adhering to early diagnosis and treatment, standardized treatment, strengthening comprehensive treatment, advocating translational medicine, and emphasizing evidence-based medicine can benefit more liver cancer patients.
Professor Jia Weiping, an academician of the CAE Member, introduced the transformation case of the management model of chronic disease prevention and control and the experience of big data in promoting the integration of medicine and prevention and the whole process management of diabetes. She believes that moving forward, prioritizing health, and actively promoting health are more reasonable and efficient strategies to combat chronic diseases. In the era of great health, chronic disease prevention and control is a systematic project that involves collaboration among multiple fields and departments, and digitalization is a new trend in the development of chronic disease prevention and control and health management.
