Abstract: Development is the top priority, and talent is the first resource. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to implement a coordinated development strategy of regions and intensify measures to promote a new layout for the western development. Due to the influence of history, environment, humanities, and other factors, the economic and social development level of the eastern and western regions is quite different. The western region faces major challenges in attracting and retaining the talents. The lack of high-level scientific and technological talents has become a constraint to the economic and social sustainability of the western region, which seriously hampered their development. This study takes the young scientific and technological talents of the institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the western part of China as an example. Based on the questionnaires, a research on the development problems of the young scientific and technological talents in the western China institutes has been conducted, and the differences of the young scientific and technological talents in various disciplines/affiliations are analyzed. The development mechanism of the young talents in western China based on the regional resource characteristics is constructed, and the countermeasures and suggestions are proposed.

Abstract: Young researchers are the pioneering force with the most innovative vitality, the main force for basic research and core technology breakthroughs, and the backbone for realizing scientific and technological (S&T) self-reliance and self-improvement. In order to strengthen the construction of national strategic S&T force, there is an urgent need to strengthen the construction of young research team and establish a talent development environment that can effectively stimulate the young researchers’ creativity, innovation ability, vitality and motivation. This paper summarizes the experience and results of “Youth Innovation Promotion Association”—the main program of independent cultivation of young S&T talents of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), by analyzing the important role of young researchers in the output of major scientific and technological achievements. It then puts forward the systematic thinking of optimizing the development of young research team in China, amongst our efforts towards S&T self-reliance and self-improvement, from the following three aspects: taking multiple measures to strengthen the support to young researchers, creating an institutional environment for young researchers to devote themselves to research, and building a diversified platform for academic exchanges and scientific research cooperation. Lastly, this paper proposes to further optimize and promote the construction of an innovation-oriented development community for the young S&T talents, as well as accelerate the interdisciplinary cooperation of them for integrating innovation.
