Marleen Temmerman, a Belgian health expert and former World Health Organization official, recently reflected on over thirty years of fostering scientific and technological exchanges between China and Europe. The interview took place in Brussels on October 30, 2024, highlighting her longstanding commitment to reproductive health and digital innovation cooperation 1. Her career milestones include establishing the International Centre for Reproductive Health at Ghent University in Belgium in 1994, which marked the beginning of her collaborative epidemiological and health research initiatives with Chinese institutions 1. She subsequently served as the Director of the Department of Reproductive Health and Research at the WHO from 2012 to 2015 1.
Current bilateral and multilateral efforts are increasingly focused on digital and intelligent technologies, particularly through the Sino-European Health Symposium launched by Temmerman in 2017 1. Today, she is actively promoting AI-driven healthcare collaborations involving Belgium, the European Union, and China in Africa, targeting applications such as AI-supported early pregnancy ultrasound examinations and breast cancer screening 1. Temmerman emphasizes that mutual trust, data transparency, and robust privacy protection systems are critical foundations for international tech cooperation in the era of artificial intelligence, while also advocating for strengthened trilateral partnerships among China, Europe, and Africa to address global challenges 1.
Beyond institutional frameworks, Temmerman has observed significant cultural and operational shifts within these exchanges. She praised China’s rapid execution capabilities, citing an example where a university constructed a gymnasium in just over one year 1. Additionally, she noted a transformation in Chinese students studying abroad, describing them as having evolved from being shy to becoming more confident and assertive in their perspectives 1.
