Abstract

For the "COVID-19" pandemic spreading around the globe, the successful development of nucleic acid testing reagents is critical to disease prevention and control. It has also made governments and institutions aware of the importance of original innovation for disruptive technology. Based on the literature review, this paper discusses the concepts of disruptive technology and original innovation. It then extracts the core elements for original innovation by analyzing two cases of the fundamental research teams of Tsinghua University. Finally, it puts forward a model on achieving original innovation for disruptive technology to a project or team.
