William Campbell from Ireland and Satoshi Omura from Japan share the prize for their discovery of the drug avcrmectin(除虫菌素).The prize for medicine is also going to Tu Youyou. She discovered artemisinin(青蒿素). Artemisinin is a drug that has greatly lowered the number of people who die from malaria(疟疾).

From 1972 to 2012, Ms. Tu went through about 40 failures before she succeeded. But she never gave up and always fought on.

A member of the Nobel committee said that the award for Tu Youyou is the result of a great change in the way that Chinese do scientific research.
