As a leading scholar in general practice, Professor Shu has been dedicated to strengthening the service capacity of primary care physicians and has contributed significantly to the development and implementation of general practice as an academic discipline in China. As an educator in general practice, she pioneered exploration of general practitioner training in China in 2000 and established a standardized training system for general practice professionals with Chinese characteristics, contributing to the development of the first generation of formally trained general practitioners in mainland China. In recognition of her outstanding contributions to medical education, Professor Shu received the National Teaching Achievement Award for Higher Education from the Ministry of Education of China in 2014. The postgraduate general practitioner training program at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, under her leadership, was accredited by the World Organization of Family Doctors (WONCA) for postgraduate education and became the first training program worldwide to receive this recognition. As an expert advisor on general practice and community health service policies in China, Professor Shu has actively contributed to the formulation of national and regional policies related to general practitioner systems, workforce development, and incentive mechanisms. Her work has played an important role in advancing general practice education and the development of primary healthcare services in Shanghai and across China. As Chair of the Academic Committee of the National Demonstration Base for General Practice Faculty Training and Deputy Chair of the Expert Committee on General Practitioner Education and Training of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, she was commissioned by the Department of Science and Education of the National Health Commission to develop national standards for general practice faculty training, making substantial contributions to the establishment of a high-quality general practice education system in China. Professor Shu was also the first in China to propose and implement a collaborative training model integrating government, universities, hospitals, and community healthcare institutions for the development of general practice faculty and workforce. This innovative model has greatly promoted the professional development of general practitioners and strengthened primary healthcare capacity. She has served as chief editor of undergraduate textbooks and multiple national textbooks for standardized general practitioner residency training and transition training programs, addressing the previous shortage of standardized educational resources for general practice training in China. She also translated Color Atlas of Family Medicine into Chinese and contributed to the development of internationally recognized resources, including WONCA’s The Contribution of Family Medicine and Community Medicine to Health (2nd Edition). Professor Shu has led numerous research projects focusing on primary care populations, including older adults, patients with chronic diseases, and migrant workers. She has completed multiple provincial, municipal, and institutional research projects and published more than 100 academic papers. Her research has provided important evidence for healthcare development and policy formulation in primary and underserved areas of China. She has also led and contributed to the development of national clinical practice guidelines for chronic disease management in primary care, providing scientific frameworks for standardized and precision-based chronic disease management. Professor Shu has represented China at multiple WONCA World and regional conferences, delivering keynote presentations on the development of general practice and community healthcare services in China. She has served twice as a member of the WONCA Asia Pacific Regional Council and has made significant contributions to the advancement of general practice and primary healthcare both nationally and internationally.
