The spirit of a scientist is the patriotic spirit of having the motherland in mind and serving the people, the innovative spirit of bravely climbing to the top and daring to be the first, the realistic spirit of pursuing truth and rigorous scholarship, the dedication spirit of being indifferent to fame and fortune, concentrating on research, and gathering wisdom. The collaborative spirit of tackling key problems, unity and cooperation, and the nurturing spirit of being willing to serve as a ladder for others and encouraging young learners.

Vigorously promote the spirit of scientists and form a strong atmosphere in the whole society of respecting knowledge, advocating innovation, respecting talents, loving science, and dedicating themselves to science. This will surely further inspire and motivate the majority of scientific and technological workers to strive for major scientific research achievements. Creators, devotees of building a powerful country through science and technology, practitioners of lofty ideological and moral character, and leaders of good social trends, continue to march towards the breadth and depth of science and technology.
