Nobel committee members expect mainland Chinese scientists to win prize in future

BEIJING, March 24 (Xinhua) -- Members of a Nobel Committee delegation said Thursday they expect scientists on the Chinese mainland to win the prize in the future during a forum in Qinghua University in Beijing.

The delegation, headed by Anders Flodstrom, president of the Royal Technological Institute of Sweden, made a lecture on the Nobel Prize and scientific discovery at the forum, telling students of this university about the history and application requirements of the Nobel prizes.

"A Nobel prize winner should at least have one significant discovery or invention," said Bertil Fredholm, an academician of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

Nobel prize winners are creative, who need a quite free environment that can stimulate their originality, Fredholm said.

"I believe that graduates of this university will surely win Nobel prize within 50 years," said Fredholm when answering questions from students.
