When I was a child, there was a text of "Li Shizhen" in the Chinese textbook. After learning this text, I learned something about Li Shizhen, a great scholar who made great contributions to the medical career in China. Li Shizhen is very strict about medicine. When he found some mistakes before the publication of Bibliography of Materia Medica, he had the idea of correcting them and put them into practice.

Li Shizhen, author of Compendium of Materia Medica.
Li Shizhen was a famous physician in Ming Dynasty. He was born in a medical family, and his grandfather and father are both very famous local doctors. This family environment has a great influence on Li Shizhen. After several failed imperial examinations, he devoted himself to the medicine he liked since childhood, and later devoted himself to medical research, making important contributions to China's medical career. He not only led his family and disciples to complete the great work Compendium of Materia Medica, but also his works such as Examination of Eight Veins in Strange Classics and Pulse on the Lake became models of Chinese medicine.
