There are some limitations of laboratories in the cultivation of university students' innovative thinking and scientific research ability. On the other hand, the scientific research laboratories in China universities have enough scientific research projects, advanced equipment and high quality scientific research troop. However, the openness of scientific research laboratories is not high. Based on the game theory, this paper analyzes the existing institutions. The results show that the setting of the incentive system has a significant impact on the opening of the research laboratory. When the parameters are not reasonable, the scientific research laboratory and the management side will both take a mixed strategy. However, if the parameter settings are reasonable, the management side and scientific research laboratory will both take the ideal strategy. The practical significance of this paper lies in the following aspects: China organizations should actively expand the sources of funding, and increase the support for undergraduates to participate in scientific research. Meanwhile, China universities should further encourage teachers to cany out scientific research guidance and build a scientific evaluation system for teachers' research guidance.

Balanced development of teaching and research is a difficult question for the self-cultivation of young teachers in our country. In the competitive environment of universities, faced on the problems of research task, professional title assessment and living burden, many young teachers often put more energy into scientific research at the expense of teaching quality. On the one hand, it reduces the teaching efficiency and hinders the improvement of teaching ability. On the other hand, the excessive focus on scientific research makes the teacher subconscious mind still stay in the student period, lacking the sense of mission and responsibility in the teaching process. It is difficult to complete the role transition from student to university teacher in a short time. Based on the background of innovation and entrepreneurship in universities at present, this paper expounds the main problems and challenges faced by young teachers from the perspective of the development of young teachers themselves, and takes the research on improving the quality of young teachers in foreign universities as an example. A six-dimensional training mode is proposed such as young teachers should cultivate their teachers’ ethics, teaching and research ability, scientific research ability, correct scientific research view and teaching view, internationalization consciousness and ability cultivation, innovation ability of young teachers themselves and promoting the innovative consciousness of students. Final conclusion includes coexistence of listening and universal love, equal stress on teaching and research, interacting between talents cultivation and scientific research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
