Biography

Sun was born in Ningbo, Zhejiang, on June 12, 1927. In September 1940, he attended the Ningbo County Private Three-One Middle School (宁波县私立三一学校).[2] On October 27, 1940, the Japanese Unit 731 dropped a bacterial bomb on the downtown area of Ningbo, and the plague broke out suddenly, killing more than 100 people in just ten days.[2] On April 19, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Army occupied Ningbo, and the school was forced to disband.[2] In 1942 he was accepted to Ningbo Normal High School (宁波高中师范学校), where he met Li Pingzhi (李平之), a music teacher who had a profound impact on him.[2] After graduation, due to the Nationalist government not recognizing his education background, he had to wait for work at home.[2] With the help of Li Pingzhi, he then taught at Shanghai Tangshanlu School (上海唐山路小学).[2] In 1949, he enrolled at Beijing Normal University, majoring in the Department of Biology. After graduating in 1951, he taught at the university as an assistant. He joined the Communist Party of China in 1952. After a year's study at Beijing Russian Institute, he was sent to study at Moscow State University, where he obtained a Candidate of Sciences degree under the supervision of Haymob. He returned to China in 1958 and continued to teach at Beijing Normal University, where he was promoted to associate professor in 1978 and to full professor in 1984. In October 1983, he led the team to Belgium for academic research. He died of myocardial infarction in Guangzhou, Guangdong, on February 14, 2020, aged 92.[3][2]

Honours and awards
gollark: Trying to map everything onto a one-dimensional political scale is a terrible idea.
gollark: I'm distrustful of any economic system which runs on central planning, which is problematic for many, many reasons.
gollark: But the actual values are pretty subjective.
gollark: I mean, it *sort of* does? You can say something like "X system is good at satisfying Y values", and that is at least... objectively testable?
gollark: Which is pretty subjective, so kind of lacking the "right about everything" part.
