On May 14, Professor Shi-yong Sun from Emory University School of Medicine attended the postgraduate dissertation defense meeting of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University at the invitation of the hospital. On the next day, he delivered an academic report in the Urological Research Instituteof our hospital.

The Urological Research Institute of our hospital has established a good cooperative relationship with Professor Sun since 2008. The institute and Professor Sun have conducted exchange visits for many times and carried out deep academic exchange in the fundamental tumor research. In the following year, Professor Sun cooperated with the research group headed by Professor Chen Mingwei from Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine in our hospital. He came to our hospital for several times, delivered special lectures on some topics such as the international lung cancer diagnosis and treatment progress and the opportunities and challenges in clinical practice, and personally guided postgraduates in their research topic designs. Professor Sun has constantly conducted academic exchanges with the teachers and students in our hospital through emails and video telephone for many years and broadened their scientific research vision and way of thinking. He has participated in the joint education of three doctoral candidates, i.e. Ren Hui, Shi Puyu and Zhang Shuo, enabled them to accept the systematic comprehensive scientific research training and developed their independent innovative scientific research thinking and scientific research capabilities. In the recent years, the Chinese research group and the American research group have closely cooperated. They have successively published many academic papers in some most influential international periodicals such as Clinical Cancer Research, Cancer Letters and Molecular Cancer, greatly enhanced the scientific research levels of the research groups and boosted the academic influence of our hospital.

On May 14, Professor Sun participated in and offered guidance to the postgraduate dissertation defense meeting in Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine at the invitation of our hospital. He conducted deep exchange with the evaluation experts and postgraduates. They conducted ardent academic discussions about the domestic and international hot research topics on lung cancer, and enabled the meeting participants to be greatly enlightened and learn greatly. On the next day, Professor Sun delivered an academic report entitled “Challenges in mTOR-targeted Cancer Therapy” at the Urological Research Institute of our hospital and shared the research achievements on the mechanism of mTOR inhibitors. The report content is very significant for improving the targeted therapeutic effect of mTOR inhibitors on tumors and predicting the responses of tumor patients to the treatment of mTOR inhibitors.

The 10-year close cooperation with Professor Sun has stimulated our hospital to make a qualitative leap in the scientific research capability and level. We hope to further research on the mechanisms and treatment of diseases through further international exchanges and learning.
