At the same time, coordinated progress in education, technology and talent development should be advanced, following the laws of talent cultivation, improving education quality, and continuously nurturing reserve forces for basic research. Mechanisms for coordinated education and scientific research should be optimized, with strong support for young talent.

Xi Jinping also emphasized strengthening support and safeguards for basic research, gradually increasing the proportion of funding devoted to basic research and forming a diversified investment framework. A systematic layout for major scientific and technological infrastructure should be advanced, alongside the development of intelligent research platform systems. A classified evaluation system aligned with the characteristics of basic research should be improved, along with better working and living conditions for researchers. (ta/w)
