Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the DiwaniKhas; and
two very beautiful mosques.

respected Lasker Award for her discovery of a new approach to malaria (疟疾) treatment.
The 81yearold was presented with the medical prize by the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation on
September 23, 2011 in New York.
Tu, a scientist at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing, was praised by the jury (评判委员会) for her "drug therapy (治疗) for malaria that has saved millions of lives across the globe,
especially in the developing world," according to a statement on the foundation"s website.
In early 1969, Tu was appointed head of a government project that aimed to eradicate(消灭) malaria, and it was then that she began applying modern techniques with Chinese traditional medicine to find drug
therapy for malaria.

An artemisininbased drug combination is now the standard regimen (养生法) for malaria, and the
World Health Organization lists artemisinin and related agents in its catalog of "Essential Medicines", said
