Back To The Age Of The 80s

"This is the latest paper on'Extending the Storage Time of Human Transplanted Organs' published by the University of Chicago Institute of Biology. I have read it. The technology is only theoretical. The only highlight of the paper is the storage solution." Liu Sizhao said. Passed the American medical journal to Li Zheng.

Regarding the scientific research competition with the University of Chicago Biological Laboratory, Liu Sichao feels like he is in a dream. Now the ninth laboratory, plus his family member Mr. Liang, is two and a half people. Li Zheng and him are two people. Although Mr. Liang is an adult, his professionalism is negligible, even if he is half.

A full play is two and a half people, and he has to compete with the biology laboratory of the world-famous University of Chicago. Even ten years ago, when he was young and vigorous, he did not dare to pay such attention.

Li Zheng took the paper and turned it over, and he understood the meaning of Liu Sizhao's words.

Human beings are the most perfect works of heaven, and human organs are the most precise parts in the human body. For the heart, which is the most difficult organ storage, it has extremely high requirements for temperature and chemical environment. To achieve this with the technology of the 1980s, the cost of wealth is simply beyond the reach of ordinary patients.

The University of Chicago mentioned in extending the storage time of the heart that it is theoretically feasible to simulate the human environment and delay the heart rate, but from these empty expressions, it is obvious that they have not developed a specific experimental operation process.

The most commonly used and best organ storage solution in the country is the UW solution developed by the University of Wisconsin. The refrigeration reference table released by the American Organ Transplant Association in the mid-1980s is also based on the UW solution standard.

The Biological Laboratory of the University of Chicago analyzed the components of the UW solution in detail to reduce its side effects on the organs and extend the storage time of transplanted organs.

However, from the results of the first phase of his experiment, the effect of reducing the side effects of UW solution on transplanted organs is achieved, but the prolonged time is almost negligible.

Li Zhengdi laughed, "A typical Taurus project."

The Taurus project is considered a highly profitable project in economics. But this term, when put on academic projects, seems somewhat ironic. It mostly refers to scientific research projects whose economic value is greater than academic value.

It is like this in the University of Chicago Biological Laboratory, reducing the side effects of UW solution.

UW solution is the universal storage solution for transplanted organs in the world. As soon as the Chicago paper came out, the producer of UW solution would naturally send money to the door. This is probably why the laboratory released the results of the first phase of the paper so quickly.

Moreover, Li Zheng guessed that it was not willing to give up the position of Hua Qing, probably because of this.

"You are right, the patent buy-out fee for this purpose is not cheap." Liu Sichao tweeted.

Li Zheng closed the journal and threw it on the table casually, looking over the thick pile of resumes next to him.

"How is the recruitment work going?" He wants to snipe this Taurus, he must hurry up, otherwise the results of his side will come out, and the laboratory has already received the patent buyout fee from the pharmaceutical company, so he snipe It's not a laboratory but a pharmaceutical company. To speed, you must have someone first.

"Some of the postgraduates who made the move are that I interviewed a few. Although the students of Huaqing University have weak hands-on ability, they have very strong learning ability. Only two or three repetitive experiments can be used to get started. There is no big problem."

"What's missing is a leader who can keep up with our thinking, and the hands-on ability must not be too weak. This is more difficult." When doing the experiment race against time, there is no time to explain to the students, and then they can keep up with their thinking. Is very important.

but……

Li Zheng and Liu Sichao frowned at the same time. Such people are hard to find.

The recruitment time for the lead experimenter was set for the next morning. The sun shined through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel on the white bed. Li Zheng's white toes moved, and then he let out a groan.

Yesterday, there was too much trouble, making him sore and numb. Li Zheng turned his head to look at Liang Zhe, who opened his mouth slightly, and kicked his waist viciously.

"Bang" Liang Zhe was kicked to the ground.

He got up from the ground with his eyes half open, and leaned half of his body on the edge of the bed facing Li Zheng, showing an aggrieved expression.

"A Zheng, it hurts."

"Deserve it!" Li Zheng snorted coldly and got up from the bed on his feet. He still had an interview in the morning. Yesterday I wanted to go to bed early, but Liang Zhe was about to start his new project. The past few days are usually stuck together, and he is unwilling to make trouble for half the night.

There was the sound of washing in the bathroom, Liang Zhe smirked and got up to buy breakfast for Li Zheng.

"Sun Bin of the second degree, Lu Xue of the third degree, and Zheng Guangye have been admitted yesterday, and they are all top in the biology department. If it were not for the professors' laboratories in the past two years, they have not publicly recruited people. Based on their qualifications, I have been exposed to first-line scientific research projects long ago."

"That is, Zheng Guangye is also the chairman of the Student Union of the Department of Biology, the first prize of the National Biology Competition, a legend."

"I heard that this interview recruited formal experimenters, that is, the leader. To be honest, our academic level is not as good as that of Mr. Zheng."

"Don't talk about us, the whole Huaqing is hard to find." The corridor in the ninth laboratory was full of students who came to interview.

Their discussion was not small, and it clearly reached the ears of Li Zheng and Liu Sichao.

Liu Sichao touched his nose, "Sun Bin and their qualifications are good and they have great potential. But they are still a little bit short of keeping up with our thinking."

After another student went out, Li Zheng rubbed his temples. He missed Zhang Yuejun a bit. Zhang Yuejun, a mature experimental dog, was directly picked up by Li Zheng in Xu Mingsheng's laboratory.

Xu Mingsheng has cultivated for many years, and he has already cultivated Zhang Yuejun's laboratory sense of smell, so that he and Li Zheng can cooperate well soon. But Huaqing’s students are different. Huaqing’s scientific research resources are tight, and even professors have to work hard in the laboratory, let alone students.

Therefore, it is not generally difficult to pick out students from Huaqing who can follow the ideas of the two.

While talking, the next group of students came in.

A group of three people sat cautiously on the other side of the long table in front of them.

"Zhang He Yan 3, Zhang Xuedong Yan 3, Meng Jie Yan 2?" Liu Sichao glanced at his resume and raised his head.

The three nodded quickly.

"Introduce yourself, to make a long story short, and talk about your laboratory experience."

This recruitment requires laboratory experience, and all interviewers can speak more or less.

Zhang He and Zhang Xuedong talked freely, but when it was the second graduate student Meng Jie's turn, he stammered.

Li Zheng frowned slightly and raised his head.

"I...I, participated in... participated..." It's not a stammer, it's a real stammer.

However, because the two of them stared at him with scorching eyes, Meng Jie's forehead soon oozes many fine beads of sweat. He tried to open his mouth to speak, but after a long time, he still bowed his head slumping.

"Yes... I'm sorry."

Li Zheng and Liu Sichao looked at each other, and Li Zheng said, "It's okay." He lowered his head and wanted to put a cross on the name.

Meng Jie... Meng Jie?

Li Zheng was chanting the name silently in his heart, and then he couldn't help but raised his head to look at the dark and skinny stammering young man, suddenly had an absurd idea in his heart.

The future father of embryo transfer in China?

Speaking of Meng Jie, the father of embryo transfer in China, he is a very tragic figure. Although I graduated from Huaqing, one of the highest universities in China, it was difficult to find a good job after graduation because of my natural stutter.

Doing the lowest level technical work in a laboratory takes twenty years to do it.

Later, he was secretly doing experiments in the laboratory and was discovered by the person in charge of the laboratory. He was driven out of the laboratory and disappeared from the scientific research community.

Many years after his death, embryo transfer technology developed and the first domestic embryo transfer experiment was successful. When the Chinese biology community was rejoicing, foreign colleagues suddenly asked: Didn’t your country complete the first embryo transfer experiment ten years ago?

The Chinese discovered that as early as ten years ago, Meng Jie had submitted a paper to a German medical journal. It was only due to English grammar and other reasons. The paper was required to be revised, but when the paper was returned, Meng Jie had been expelled from the experiment. This made the German side think that the Chinese had voluntarily given up publishing the paper.

It's just that the German reviewer has never discarded the manuscript, and has repeatedly stated in public that the Chinese embryo transfer is at the world's leading level.

The news spread back to China, and the biology community was upset.

Everyone sighed for the fall of a genius, and the events of Meng Jie's life were also revealed to everyone.

Did he find the treasure?

"Keep the internal organs active, two minutes, give me your ideas." Li Zheng stared at Meng Jie without blinking.

Meng Jie was obviously more nervous, he made a "heavy" sound in his throat, but he couldn't utter a syllable.

Li Zheng tore a piece of paper from his notebook, and then handed it to him with his pen.

"Writing is fine."

Hearing this, Meng Jie nodded vigorously, and took the pen and paper.

Sweat dripped from his forehead, wet the paper, and a trace of disgust flashed in the eyes of Zhang He next to him.

He spoke first: "Professor Li, let me talk about it first. To keep the internal organs active, as long as it is temperature and blood circulation speed..." Zhang He's theoretical knowledge is obviously good.

"I...I'm fine, fine." Meng Jie said cautiously.
