"I want to play the role of 'tour guide' and lead students to appreciate and identify the landscape"

Professor of Life Sciences, Director of the Engineering Research Center of the Ministry of Genetics, Director of the National Health and Health Commission's birth defect and reproductive health key laboratory, executive director, deputy secretary -general of the Chinese genetic society ... Lu Duru has a lot of titles, but he comes Look, "first is a teacher, the first job is class and teaching."

For more than 30 years in teaching and research in the subject of life sciences, Lu Daru adhered to the front line of teaching, and successively undertaken 7 doors including "Introduction to Modern Bioscience", "Gene Sciences around you", "Genetics" and "Medical Molecular Genetics". Curriculum, editor -in -chief and editor -in -chief of the textbooks and digital courses, won two national teaching achievements awards, and won the title of "National Outstanding Teacher, Advanced Personal Personal Personal Personal Personal Personal Ethnic Teachers, Outstanding Young Teachers of the Ministry of Education". This year, Lu Daru won the title of "Zhong Yang" good teacher.

Be a "tour guide" to ignite the passion of students

"What is the gene? It can actually be understood as‘ handing affection ’, the‘ handed ”passed by, the loving‘ love ’...”

On the stage, Lu Daru explained the gene to his classmates humorously; under the stage, the students would smile. Since the teaching teacher of "Gene Sciences around", Lu Duru has always attached great importance to the interesting of the classroom, cut in from small things, and introduces related knowledge points in a humorous way. His funny teaching style has made many students interested in life science.

Lu Duru is in class

For students who are eager to enter the world of life sciences, Lu Daru teachs and guides academic studies due to material and material. A student of a chemical department expressed his willingness to the transfer to Lu Drazer after class. After understanding the situation, Lu Daru suggested that he first lay the foundation, master chemical knowledge, and then conduct related studies in the subject of life sciences. Later, they kept in touch and exchange hotspots at the forefront of life sciences. After graduating, the classmate chose to continue to study for a doctoral student in biomedical.

A law student often discussed with Lu Drachu after class to discuss the genetic patent that caused controversy at the time. Lu Daru encouraged this student to participate in the National University Student's "Challenge Cup" science and technology innovation competition across the country. From the application to the preliminary campus of the campus, to preparing for the national competition, Lu Daru gave him many guidance and suggestions, and also invited ethical legal experts inside and outside the school and outside the school. Guide. Finally, the student won the first prize of the National University Student "Challenge Cup" science and technology innovation contest.

"As a teacher, I want to play the role of 'tour guide' and lead students to appreciate and identify the scenery." Lu Daru understood his mission so.

"Teachers attach great importance to students' feedback." Li Yuxin, a graduate student of the 2021 master of genetics, recalled. During the teaching assistant of "Gene Sciences around you", Li Yuxin often sorted out his classmates 'questions about the course to Lu Duru. Lu Daru always took out time to answer the students' questions. "Teacher Lu encouraged the students to ask questions, and always answered the students' questions patiently." After the course, a student left a message to Li Yuxin, saying that he was very lucky to choose this course.

Lu Daru has always encouraged undergraduates to enter the laboratory. According to Liao Kai, a doctoral student he guided, the instructor often brings undergraduates who are interested in biological to visit the laboratory to encourage them to associate theory with practicality, understand the biological world in depth, and improve professional literacy in experimental research.

"Students who just entered the laboratory may look immature, but today they are yesterday. Although they are immature, they show their vitality and stimulate and protect their creativity." Lu Duru said.

Over the years, among the undergraduates directed by Lu Daru, eight have won the "Challenge Cup" science and technology competition award of college students' extracurricular science and technology works, 5 have won the highest award, and their students have won the Gold and Special Awards of the International Genetic Engineering Competition (Igem). The remaining times.

Do a good career and strive to be worthy of your heart

"Teachers are not only a career, but also a career. I always think that the relationship between teachers and students is like parents and children." Lu Duru admitted.

In the impression of You Yiyi, a master's degree in 2022, the mentor Lu Duru often brings fruits and milk from his home to the laboratory to "supplement" the students. During this year's epidemic, he took the initiative to talk to students from time to time to understand everyone's life and psychological conditions. "I worry that there are difficulties in some students, but they don't want to trouble the teacher."

During the control period, the experiments could not be carried out normally. Lu Daru led students to sort out the previous experiments, organized book newspapers, and literature discussions to make up for the losses caused by the inability to experiment. The graduate faced the progress of the papers slowly, and he helped modify the article and guide the submission.

In his life, he is amiable. In his studies, he has implemented "high standards and strict requirements."

Among his research group, many students have previously engaged in research outside of genetics. The relevant foundations are weak and difficult to complete the research project independently. To this end, he specifically finds people to lay the foundation for students and recommends learning to improve learning.

"The teacher's attitude towards the experiment is very serious. He hopes that we can do some meaningful topics." In Liao Kai's memory, when the students are not rigorous in the experimental data, Lu Duru always pointed out in time, sometimes serious criticism. But after criticism, he will patiently think of the students' thinking and guides the students with hands.

All payments, like parents' cultivation of their children, only be ashamed. "Students have any difficulties or good news to come to me. This is a very happy thing. I feel relieved to see them growing up." Lu Duru said. Popular science lecture

Let more people enter the world of life sciences

How does smoking affect physical health? What does it affect blood circulation? How does fish eggs form? How the embryo develops ...

Public science lectures for college students, talk about the "charm of genetics" for middle school students, and write popular science books for elementary school students ... Lu Duru is happy about it. In his opinion, this is also a social responsibility that the researcher of life sciences cannot shirk.

Over the years, he has given popular science lectures in various occasions such as universities, middle schools, elementary schools, hospitals, and enterprises. After receiving relevant invitations, he would not refuse every time permit. Lu Daru also opened a station B account to provide public science related knowledge.

"Science popularization is both a social responsibility and an extension of teaching and scientific research." In Lu Duru's view, it is essential to stimulate young people's thirst for science.

In addition to daily lectures and popular sciences, the student community asked him to give lectures. He also responded. He had appointments with Xie Shaling, a professor at the School of Social Development and the School of Public Policy, and discussed with the students to think about clone sheep and the response was enthusiastic. In addition, Lu Daru also served as a teacher of ethics for the School of Philosophy. Through popular science reproductive genetics and obstetrics and gynecology sciences, he helped everyone establish a correct view of marriage and childbearing; he wrote many science science articles and introduced the concepts of gene therapy and genetically modified genes to the public.

"I like my career, occupation, and hobbies together and do useful things for society. I enjoy this process."
