Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

In the words of Pingshu, Marjorie's mood at this time is probably "torn apart".

What is the concept of the project that Yang Rui created two g-protein coupled receptors in one go? Its difficulty is about two consecutive Normandy landings!

Wang Qi's scientific research projects are so terrifying. In world-class laboratories, the best researchers in the world, at the age when they have the most energy and the most knowledge reserves, launch the impact without hesitation, 110 hours or even 140 hours a week. Hours are spent in the laboratory for three, five, or even seven or eight years, and a huge amount of money is spent, using the best equipment and experimental materials that can be produced in the world, trying to tackle the most cutting-edge problems in the world. , no one has challenged a successful project...

Organizing and launching a Normandy landing is nothing more than that.

The biggest difference from the Normandy landings, except that the researchers did not have to sacrifice their lives, is that the success rate of laboratories trying to make g-protein coupled receptors is lower.

The Normandy landing was a war between two contending parties, and the enemy of g protein-coupled receptors was not only the project itself, but also many challengers of similar projects. As a result, every world-class laboratory has Do your best to win.

Tens of millions of dollars in funding is not something that can be easily given up for any laboratory.

Therefore, once a decision is made to participate in a certain project, each laboratory is quite sure. Moreover, no matter how confident they are, they have to do their best.

It's hard for Marjoli to imagine how the ion channel laboratory, after exhausting its efforts to complete the conformation of the g-protein coupled receptor, completed the crystal structure of the g-protein coupled receptor, and then completed the g-protein coupling The three-dimensional structure of the receptor...

In this way, the Ion Channel Laboratory of Peking University actually conducted three Normandy landings in a row!

"Mr. Yang Rui, can I read the paper on three-dimensional structure?" Marjorie followed Yang Rui's footsteps.

Yang Rui smiled and said, "You will be able to see it on "Science" soon, and the other party promised me that it will be arranged in the latest issue."

Jumping in the queue is a treatment exclusive to high-end scholars.

It usually takes six months to a year for normal scholars to submit manuscripts to be published in journals, so later scholars are accustomed to publishing their papers in online databases first.

In the 1980s, when there was no online database, publishing in advance could minimize disputes, but to achieve this point, it is not enough for the editor of the journal to nod.

The editors of the journals themselves will not review the papers. The more high-end journals, the more they will pay attention to the role of peer review. Peer review involves three academics reviewing a single contributor's paper, and academics tend to procrastinate when it comes to non-research matters.

In other words, if a scholar wants to jump in line, he must first convince the journal editor, and then the latter must convince the three peer-reviewed scholars to review the paper as quickly as possible, so that he can quickly enter the journal.

For a journal like "Science", there are only a handful of scholars who can persuade the editor to urge the review.

It is also because Yang Rui's current thesis is so important that all parties have to handle it carefully.

However, from another perspective, how many papers published in "Science" are not important?

The corner of Marjorie's mouth twitched twice, and said, "I want to take a good look while I'm still in China..."

"This is against the rules." Yang Rui shook his head. His goal this time was to gain the reputation of the Swedish delegation, and it was not Marjorie's alone. There was no need to take risks for this.

"I also know that this request is against the rules..." Marjorie paused for a moment, then quickly continued, and said, "A zero-required donation of 2 million US dollars, as long as you show me your paper on the three-dimensional structure. Other than that, there is no requirements."

Marjoli stopped talking about referrals and the like, so the two million dollars was almost really free.

His idea is also very clear, if Yang Rui really made the crystal structure and three-dimensional structure in one go, all the problems in the stage of G-protein coupled receptor expression will be solved.

Solving a series of problems is really a big deal.

Not to mention anything else, at least in the pharmaceutical industry, such research is worth at least 100 billion U.S. dollars—of course, Majoli is still limited by the times. Saying that is an insult.

In any case, the 2 million US dollars in Marjoli's hands must always be given away. He is not a laboratory researcher. The 2 million US dollars he won was originally for the preparation of the Nobel Prize. So far, the person who is closest to the Nobel Prize I have seen is Yang Rui.

Even if Yang Rui did not accept him as a recommender, Marjorie still had no intention of giving up.

Yang Rui had the feeling that his prestige was full of white-collar supplies.

He stood still and looked at Marjorie for a while, then asked, "Which organization sent the donation?"

"Rockefeller Foundation." Marjorie added: "Very clean."

Yang Rui raised his eyebrows. Although there are often conspiracy theorists who like to talk about Rockefeller and Rothschild, etc., in the field of scientific research, the reputation of the Rockefeller family is indeed clean, and it is cleaner than the national projects of most countries. many.

Moreover, China already has a precedent for accepting funding from the Rockefeller Foundation. Peking Union Medical College has received money from the Rockefeller Foundation for decades. The universities heavily funded by the Rockefeller Foundation are not limited to this. The Rockefeller University is a world-renowned biology university consisting of nearly a hundred related research institutes. It ranks among the top 10 in the world and claims to have more than 20 Nobel Prize winners.

"I'll think about it." Yang Rui still didn't agree.

Marjorie nodded helplessly, followed Yang Rui two more steps, and asked, "If I want to find you again, should I still come to the laboratory?"

"Let's go to school." Yang Rui smiled and grinned, and said, "School has started, I have to go through some procedures."
