9、first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize, for her work in helping to create an anti-malaria medicine. The 84-year-olds route to the honour has been anything but traditional. In China, she is being called the “three nos” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and shes never worked overseas. In 1967
10、, malaria, a then deadly disease, spread by mosquitoes was decimating Chinese soldiers fighting Americans in the jungles of northern Vietnam. A secret research unit “Mission 523” was formed to find a cure for the illness. Two years later, Tu Youyou was instructed to become the new head of “Mission 5
11、23”. “Mission 523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria. When she started her search for an anti-malaria drug, more than 240, 000 compounds(化合物)around the world had already been tested, without any success. Finally, the team found a brief refere
12、nce to one substance, sweet wormwood, which had been used to treat malaria in China around 400 A. D. The team took out one active compound in wormwood, and then tested it. But nothing was effective until Tu Youyou returned to the original ancient text. After another careful reading, she changed the
13、drug recipe one final time, heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point. After the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys, Tu Youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug. “In any case, Tu Youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion”.
14、 One former colleague, Lianda Li, says Ms Tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”, adding that “if she disagrees with something, she will say it. ”Another colleague, Fuming Liao, who has worked with Tu Youyou for more than 40 years, describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”. Stubborn enough
